Hey All,

I'm letting go of E-16 so I thought I would put that out there on HR. She's in mint condidtion-here's a little more.

This machine was bought from a reliable studio outside of Hamilton two years ago and was well maintained by the owner-a very serious engineer. He recorded the likes of shania twain on this thing so he spared no expense to maintain it's condition.

When I purchased it the only worn part was understandably-the head. I used the machine about a dozen times before I decided to let it go. I just don't have the time to record anymore and I need the money for health bills.

Recently I have had the head replaced with an absolutely brand new head as well as a full servicing of all electronic and mechanical parts. The only thing I did not replace was the pinch roller. Only because It was cleaned so often it still has lots of life in it. All work was done at Teletech, which is a very wonderful shop.

Tape is very available for this machine, you can order it from Teletech or go there and pick some up.

The machine is a half inch machine with 16 ins and outs. It comes with a snake and remote control.

With what I paid for the machine plus the replacement head, I've put about 2grand into it. As of right now it's totally ready go!

The price tag is $700.00 which I believe is quite fair considering there's nothing that it needs except some songs to record ;)

Once again the unit comes with:

16 channel snake(Rca out Quater inch in)
Remote control and connecter cable
1 take up reel
Cleaner for the pinch rollers(sure why not).

That about covers it!
