I appreciate all the help I am getting here, it's a bit deep for a novice like me but it seems to be a lot wrong with it than just a simple belt fix. I recently changed the belt on my Fostex X280 4 track multi track cassette recorder by watching a Youtube video but it wasn't easy. I guess this won't be either.

I will get back to this and read though carefully as I am in the middle of sorting my recently departed mum's house, of which this player came from. I always wanted to get her dad's accordion playing tapes digitised for her but never got round to it. As a musician I want to be able to do something with them myself. There is also other interesting stuff I would like to hear.

If this isn't too valuable, I could sell it on Ebay and buy one in good working order to save the hassle (mainly time which I am tight for at the moment)
