Thanks for the guidance, Especially w/gear & guide timing. We've been servicing analog tape machines & other vintage gear for 40 years for the recording studio market..since tape is being manufactured again we haven't stopped. The Sony SLVR1000 was a family item and your video made the repair simple. Thanks Again!
I just repaired a SLV-777 with the same broken gear. I repaired the gear using the same method as the youtube channel MISU. That technique that he uses works a treat, and the repaired gear is still going strong.
I recently purchased a used Sony SLV-R1000 super vhs on Ebay for $125. Everything worked fine, even played one of my older home videos from 1992, fairly clear. The more I played the tape, the worse the picture quality got, like most old tapes.
Great Video. Im working on one as well and replaced the blue gear and thought all was well. But im now having a audio issue. The sound is either too low, or i can adjust the guides/audio head and get it to be loud BUT distorted (also flashing in and out of stereo mode while doing that). But cant seem to find a middle-ground between the two.
I enjoy many of your Videos. the SLVR1000 is one of my favorites to work with. The one im working on now has pops in the audio when playing tapes. It is very audible and can be heard when using the Maxell dry head cleaner(vp-1000 with fish tank picture). I switched out the Audio heads and didnt get any changes, the pops are still there. I also adjusted both entry and exit guides with no affect except that my stereo would drop out on my left or right when playing with the associated guides. where should I check next? I know the popping is not from poor filtering because it only happens when tapes with a signal passes the heads. Blank tapes has no effect. If i cant fix it may I send it to you?
Appreciate the detail you provided on the alignment. Helped a lot! I can’t thank you enough for all that I’ve learned watching this channel. Sometimes I have your videos running in the background while working and will always pick up a new tip. One question I’ve had. Is the head unit in these SVHS machines the same as the one in the standard VHS units with the same chassis? In other words, could I swap a standard VHS chassis into one of these SLV R1000 units? I’d assume no, but thought maybe it was possible if what makes it an SVHS is not the heads but some video processing after.

Another great video as always. I appreciate how thorough you are when it comes to explaining this stuff.
Love working on this and the near-identical SVO-2000, such great modular designs and great picture.
Nice tutorial. I don’t expect to ever do this but I do enjoy knowing something about these repairs. Thanks for your expertise
Brilliant repair and service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Superb and valuable video. Thanks Dave.
That's a cool deck, i still loves my slv-825 🤗👍but the slv-825 is more service friendly 😎
Beautiful machine. Sony never made consumer Super-VHS PAL recorders. Unfortunately.

First thing I thought of when you removed the broken gear, as compared to the new gear, it looked like it was incomplete.
I tried to delete the video cassette with magnet, but the vcr head is broken, can it be repaired?
