THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH - Choke
Go! Discs
Cat# 828 233-4
Australian release
1990
Clear cassette packaging is in good condition, some scuff marks to the clear front section but no cracking. Front cover insert is in very good condition, clean and with no writing or markings.
Inspected the front pressure pad and side rollers, they are all fine. This is a pseudo plastic screwed clamshell so if something ever went awry with the tape inside e.g in need of relube or other maintenance, then you will have great difficulty getting "inside", any attempt to unscrew will most likely fail - they are more for show than any practical purpose.
Test machine, my Nakamichi 480
Before playing, I have repacked the tape (complete FF & RW cycles a couple of times), and then played both sides ENTIRELY - there are no issues with the shell or tape at all, audio is full range with no "drop outs" or high frequency loss across both sides.
This is a really nice playback!
