Restoring an old Reel-To-Reel Recorder and How To Clean Heads | RRG Episode 15
The Retro Repair Guy restores a vintage reel-to-reel tape recorder, the Sharp RD-715C from 1970. For this restoration, I had to recap the entire unit to future-proof it and cleaned the heads. This retro tape recorder is now ready for a new life.
