Some parts are still available from Tascam. Belts can usually be sourced from a couple of suppliers. However, if the decks haven't been serviced in awhile, you should really send them to someone who has the proper alignment tools and knowledge to do the job right. FWIT: I recall getting a few brand new decks from Tascam back in the day that were incorrectly aligned right out of the box. I think their QC towards the end was getting rather sloppy. --Scott Scott D. Smith Chicago Audio Works, Inc.
