First vcrs...
My parents bought teir first vcr, a JVC HR-D120U from Woodward's in '84 and replaced it in '94 with a Panasonic PV-8450 (?) but I saved the JVC and still run every so often but the idler tire for the take-up spindle should be replaced. Still plays quite well considering the mileage it accumulated over the years! My first vcr was (and still is) a Sony SL-100 2 head mono superbeta I saved up for while in high school in '87, but the hall sensor has failed a couple years ago so it is in storage till I can get around to dealing with that. My first U-Matic is a VO-2600 in '91, bought from the school district complete with the TT-100 tuner/timer AND the FA-20 timer adapter! all for $11. Still works perfect!! Bought my first EIAJ-1 vtrs at the time too, AV-3600 and AV-8600 for $15 for both. These are still working great too, just did maintenance on my AV-8600 to do some transfers recently.
