New member and tinkering with an old TEAC cassette deck V-400x. Can't seem to get a clean recording at any level. Made several recordings of voice, acoustic guitar and amplified guitar. (single mic, left channel only Shure SM58- Maxell XLII tape) Never redlining during recording but almost constant redlining on playback.
Any thoughts? Bad record head?
*Bought it for $6 and took it home, VERY squeaky. Cleaned the heads and rollers, opened it up and lubed what I could without disassembling.
