Great work with pin)) with good results as usually. Some strange damaged head because i've seen only left channel worse than other, but i haven't your experience, sure. Good deck, i very like SONY'S sound, i have several decks, but nothing plays better. But, my deck has a glitch with pause button. When i touch it, it start rewind, or play etc. Maybe, the knob itself damaged? Not find the source yet. Thank you for great video, i learning much.

Hello, and Amazing work as usual 😊
With what kind of stuff do you relap the heads ? Abrasive tools I suppose but which type?
I would have been very glad to see how you did the relap.
I learn a lot from all your videos, a big thanks for sharing your experience and your work.
