Discover the SONY TCM-59, a classic portable cassette recorder designed for convenience and versatility. This unit is equipped with useful features like Auto Reverse, Voice Operated Recording (VOR), and a microphone sensitivity switch, making it ideal for language learning, recording lectures, or simply enjoying your favorite cassette tapes. It also includes dedicated microphone and earphone jacks, along with a tape counter for easy navigation.
This TCM-59 has been professionally serviced and is ready for immediate use. While it is in overall poor cosmetic condition with a sun-faded acrylic window, it functions well for daily use. Please note that the pinch roller has some slight shrinkage, which may make playing very thin tapes (such as 90-minute tapes) difficult. However, standard 46-minute or 60-minute tapes play without issue. Embrace the nostalgic charm and practical functionality of this vintage SONY recorder, shipped directly from Japan with tracking.
This item is also listed for sale at our other stores, so it may occasionally sell out due to a time lag in stock updates. In that case, we will contact you and cancel the order. Thank you for your understanding.
