A nice one owner from new Ferrograph mono reel to reel tape machine, offering 3.75 and 7.5 inches per second tape speed. If required a additional tape head can be fitted , but i feel its perfect as it is. Condition is very good with the usual slight marking and wear to the outer case, but the chassis and tape transport and controls are like new. The spool size can go up to 8.25 inches and comes supplied with 7 inch spools.

The electronics have been taken apart fully tested as the valves to ensure good emmisions , and any components requiring replacement have been undertaken. The record and seperate playback head fully cleaned, all the tape transport system fully cleaned. The motor's 3 seperate units, re-oiled and transport system re-greased , all knobs work smoothly and the record function is very sensitive.

The recorder comes complete with its original Ferrograph Series 5 manual including abridged operating instructions and gurantee card, mains lead  and 7 inch tape plus Ferrograph take up spool . The tape has a recent recording of the Navy Lark used as a test and for something you can listen to straight away while you get used to the machine.

Like all Ferrographs, quality is first class and the audio ampilifier produces 2.5 Watts from a single 15 ohm 10 by 6 inch loud speaker. Monitoring while recording into either of the 2 inputs is very straight forward and you can if required switch the speaker off. A book published "built like a battle ship" tells you the quality of build and that it also weighs just under in old english 50 pounds.

All British built and in the year when purchased would in todays value be in the order of £4000, thats quality for you.

Comes complete with mains plug, original documents tape and 3 months gurantee

This is the one collectors are looking full, the ultimate in reel to reel machines. The H series offeres 15 inches per second and 7.5 as well as 3.75. with quater track and stereo switchable and can use reels up to 8.25 inches in diameter. The machine has been stripped down, any electronics that were not up to specification have been replaced and all mechanical parts cleaned re-greased and fully tested.There is only slight marking to the case, the only issue the owner was unable to find the lid which is rather annoying though not to important for everyday use. comes complete with its original user manual as the does so much you would need it, one spool of tape pre-recorded so you can straight away get used to how it works with the pick up spool. Because of the stero pre-amp circuits etc the audio output is a single small speaker fitted to the right hand side for monitoring, Ferrograph assumed that this would be connected to a hifi ampifier which is fitted  via phono plugs at the rear above the two stero inputs. I always wanted to get one of these and even on Ebay untested are going for lots of money. Offered with 3 months gurantee and full packing with insurance

A perfect working machine and records and playback perfectly. In fact I like the older style look with the period controls. As in all apart from the last model, the style was very similar and mechanicaly the same, why change perfection. This model 4AN offers two speeds 3.75 and 7.5 inches per second and playback offeres an impressive 2.5 Watts output into a 10 inch by 5 ellipitical loudspeaker.

This professional built tape machine has three independant motors, direct drive, so no issues with drive belts., a turns counter gear driven, with a brief stop fitting to the head cover.Recording level meter and the choice of interchangeable heads, allowing stero or monitoring if required, unlike the series 5 which by then was standard by switching in or out the 4 did not. The Ferrograph will also take upto 8.25 inch spools, but comes complete with 7 inch Ferrograph sppol and a tape with a test recording done for you to get used to the machine. When new this model cost 81 Gns, that is £4000 in todays money, no wonder collectors like them and the fact they still work today.

As standard the unit has been taken apart all servicing electronicaly and mechanicaly have been carried out, all tape paths and erase and record/playback head cleaned. Fully tested to meet Ferrographs requirements

The general condition of the case is fine with some age related wear to it and the control panel shows some sign of wear. Comes complete with mains lead and a copy of the Ferrograph sales information plus tapes and 3 months gurantee.
