Description from the seller
Up for auction is a fantastic, large premium lot of 23 vintage BASF LP35 Long Play open reel-to-reel magnetic tapes. Perfect for collectors, audiophiles, and home studio enthusiasts.
This uniform collection features the highly sought-after German-made BASF LP35 tapes, known for their exceptional durability and high-fidelity sound. Unlike many other tapes from this era, the BASF LP35 formula does not suffer from sticky-shed syndrome, making them incredibly stable and perfect for long-term use.
Regarding quantity and size, there are 23 tapes in total. They are all 18 cm or 7-inch reels, which is the most popular standard size for consumer and semi-professional decks.
The tape type is BASF LP35, measuring 549 meters or 1801 feet. This provides 90 minutes of total playing time at a speed of 9.5 cm/s
All 23 tapes are one hundred percent tested. They have been visually inspected and fully tested. They are in excellent working condition and ready for immediate playback or re-recording.
The original green leader tape, also known as starttejp, is fully intact at the beginning of the reel on every single tape in this lot.
The lot includes 22 original matching dark grey BASF reels and 1 high-quality transparent reel. Many still feature the original colored tape-end clips. All tapes come in their original black and blue BASF hard plastic library boxes.
The cosmetic condition is very good and clean vintage condition. The library boxes are intact without any major cracks or broken hinges.
Regarding shipping and packaging, due to the substantial weight of this premium lot, the shipping profile is set for the 15 kg weight class.
The lot will be packed with extreme care using a double-walled cardboard box, heavy-duty tape, and several layers of thick bubble wrap. This guarantees that the fragile plastic library boxes arrive completely safe and undamaged anywhere in Europe. We only use tracked and insured shipping.
