AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Nice tape recorder from Akai.
type 4000DS MK2
Black edition

This Akai 4000 DS MK-II tape recorder plays, rewinds, and records well.
Visually in good condition (see photos), also technically in good order.
The VU lighting also works.

It is the somewhat rarer black version.

The metal Akai reel and the black plastic Akai reel are also included.
Both with tape, of which the content and quality are unknown.
Both in a plastic box.
The other components are not included; they only demonstrate operation.

In short, a nice reel-to-reel recorder in a beautiful and complete condition.
The Capstan small pulley for adjusting the speed is also available.

See the photos for the condition of the plot.
