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 and tested, the valves are perfect like new again indicates minor use, typical in private ownership , 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, Ferrograph service and invoice in 1969 plus original mains lead see other photo's below 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

A very fine example of the rare Super 7 this machine has only one owner from brand new, been boxed for many years.

I have re-polished the heads, replaced the Idler wheels, cleaned and tested the unit. Comes with its original box and packing for delivery. The owner was unable to find the user manual, but this can be found on the net. Though in many ways an easier tape machine to use than the basic 7 model.

This unit offeres 3 speeds with the important 15 inches per second.

Comes complete with mains lead, tape and spool with a pre-recorded British comedy taken from the radio for reference and 6 monyths gurantee

A very fine one owner Series 7 Ferrograph. The condition is near perfect with no marks anywhere. It has been taken apart and the capstan and speed wheels have all been replaced with brand new units. The record and playback heads have been polished as well as the tape guides. The electronics where needed have been replaced as per the photos. It comes with a mint user and service manual supplied with the unit when purchased

The Series 7 can do full track, half and quarter track with operating tape speeds of 7.5, 3.75 and 1.75 inches per second.

The fast wind and rewind contol is variable unlike the earlier models which were either on or off, and at 7.5 inches per second has a very good frequency response of 30Hz to 17 Khz with a good internal stereo amplifier offering 10 Watts RMS max fed into two elliptical 7 by 4 inch loudspeakers.

The lower panel opens at the base where the base/treble controls , bias , L/s output and meter switches with transfer and meter switches are held.

Overall the unit is near perfect, the only item to mention is the right hand volume control is very slightly scratchy as well as the speed switch , but i do mean very slight , infact does not warrant replacing.

The top of the unit has most of the in and outs, ie line and loudspeaker out with the microphone inputs on the front panel where the main controls are placed.

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 near mint example of the last machine before the logic 7 series in the early 1970's, just like the car salesman "one careful owner from new", but in this case this is true, it was a 21st birthday present, wow some present and was looked after until the owner died some 10 years ago and was stored until now. There is just a few marks to the rear tape deck, but apart from that its as near perfect I have seen. Also supplied very rare is the zip cover. The machine has been fully serviced, heads cleaned etc plus any electrical components not up to specification replaced. It offers 3 speeds, 1.7/8,3.75,and 7.5 inches per second, spool capacity up to 8.25 inches and as to all Ferograph motors, these are tropical treated which in our climat means damp cannot penetrate the windings. Costing originally £88 gns and quality counts, comes complete with abridged operating instructions , original sales details and 6 months gurantee.

A very fine series 6 Ferrograph, the specification is the same as the one above , case is clean chassis is like new again this model 6 offere's 3 speeds. The volume control knob, far right had the top steel lid missing when received , this has been replaced with a series 5 that does not have the black pointer on top as the others, though you still have the original red marker near the numbers.

The tape deck and controls are in very fine condition, often the series 6 are in better condition than the earlier models due to being the latter version and has had less use.Comes complete with the full user manual and recorded tape
