Pioneer CT-S405 Stereo Cassette Deck Serviced w/ Belts

Description

Offered is a vintage Pioneer CT S405 cassette deck in excellent cosmetic and working condition.   The CT S405, released in 1989, was sold late in the cassette era and so didn't have many units sold.  It has both Dolby B & C plus automatic tape bias sensing and a few other electronic features.
As received it was partially operational.  This was due to the fact that two of the three belts had degradation issues.  The FF/Rewind belt had turned to goo and the capstan belt was part way there (so the deck in play ran slowly).  The tape counter belt was still intact but not in its prime.  These issues are a common problem in cassette decks from this vintage because of poor rubber formulations.  Otherwise everything else was clean and dust free.  The heads looked good and the rubber on the pinch roller was still pliable although there were typical signs of wear.  Three new belts have been installed.  After more than 40 years things drift and so the playback level, record level and bias pots have been adjusted where needed.   Currently both the playback and record functions work very well.  There is no volume control for the headphone output.   Everything tested was found to be in good working order.
