FULL COLOR

Enjoy analog VCR playback at its finest,
Test your tracking and heads after each VCR repair job using this master tape.

Repairing a VCR - vintage or recent model? Want to know if you've fully repaired it? Everything aligned? Playback perfect? Use my master tape choose Beta, VHS, VHS-C - purchase the right appropriate tape for your vcr. I have several models of tapes available. For example if you are repairing a BETA VCR - then you must buy the Beta tape. If you are repairing a VHS VCR then you must choose a VHS tape ...

Got a VCR that eats tapes? Fix that first! Don't put a master tape in a vcr that eats tapes. Once you are 100% positive that you have fixed it and is working perfectly - then you can check the final alignment of heads and tracking with my calibration tape.

Each tape is only One Format and One speed
For example VHS has many speed settings SP, LP, EP

In the early days of VHS EP had no HQ enhancement. To thoroughly test this feature you need to have the appropriate tape. Yes I can produce EP in HQ or non-HQ (original as many early 80s VHS vcrs were equipped with) make sure you purchase the correct tape, speed, and features at time of payment.

I only make NTSC tapes which is the standard for North America. I do not make test tapes for other types (PAL-no, SECAM-no, etc)

I do not provide any fancy case.
