I have a friend that has a supply of Scotch 226 NOS tape
« on: June 20, 2012, 09:27:00 AM »
He does work for a lot of recording studios, he and I have both worked for Longview Farms, I was there during the Gil Markle days, he was there during the Jesse days, and still does work for them.

He has boxes, unopened cases really, of Scotch 226. This tape has never been recorded on, and he wants to let it go as he is moving into performing roles and away from piano maintenance/tuning.

Is there any interest in this tape, and what would be a fair value for it per reel, of course these are 10.5 inch reels.
Thanks,
Zzeon

Seems 226 is a Sticky Shed tape.
