FS: Otari mx5050 mkiii-4 track recorder w/ extras

[supermonster]

Otari MX5050 MKiii-4
4 track reel to reel tape recorder.
Uses 1/2" tape.

This machine is up on Ebay, but would much rather have it go here on the TOMB. $850 w/ local pickup.

Here is the Ebay listing so you can see photos: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Otari-mx5050-MK ... 1755981103?

The machine turns on and operates as it should. All meters light up and all channels pass signal. All functions work properly (FF/RW/STOP/PLAY/REC).
Machine has seen little use in past two years, but always stored safely in the studio.

Physically, there are some slight scratches, dings, and marks, but nothing serious. A good looking machine overall.

We just installed a new pinch roller (purchased from Terry's Rubber Rollers) and it has under 2hrs of use on it. All the heads have been cleaned, demagnetized, and maintained properly through the years.

Comes with original manual, hub adaptors, one reel of new 1/2" tape, and a take-up reel. Everything you need to start recording!

Would prefer local pickup (NYC area) and will drive to meet if necessary.
Will ship if buyer pays for the costs.
