Re: What have you just bought?

A new pinch roller (£2.85 Ebay) to help in re-furbishing my Akai GXC-38D cassette deck. It'll need slight fettling to fit as it's not an exact Akai part but it's close enough.

I'll also need a suitable main belt as it's got a kink in it from having not been used for some time.

I'll have to bring the electronics up gently to allow the capacitors to re-form. I may need to replace them. All the switches and sliders will need the magic engineers' spray. Be nice to have a vintage bit of kit working again.
