Randall Reed Studios - Reel to Reel Tape

Here's the tape! I have a large quantity of fresh Quantegy tape that is the last batch Quantegy made as they stopped their tape line and finished up their orders last year. I bought a lot of Quantegy so I can meet your needs for quite some time. There are some other tape lines from other companies either on-line or coming on line so don't worry about not having tape for your reel to reel. I also have a limited supply of New Old Stock (NOS) tape of many reel to reel brands that you can't easily find anymore. Price listed is per tape.

NOTE 9-15-8: I had a huge run on my Quantegy 456 tape and most of it is gone. I still have a quantity of other Quantegy tape such as 457 and 406 1/2" along with the Quantegy 600 series which makes an excellent tape for home use. Plus I still have a good quantity of NOS tape. Later I will be putting some slightly used tape on here at a good price. I've also lowered the price on many existing tapes.

What's neat about some of the old tape for recording music in your home studio is that you may get a slightly different sound than the standard tapes of today. Guitar Player magazine highlighted a guitar player that did his album on a 4-track cassette deck! Not sure I'd want to do it that way but searching for your own sound is a good chunk of the fun.

I also have quality used r2r tape for a decent price in 7 inch and 10.5 inch along with the DAT format. I also have a few of the hard to get metal cassette tape NOS.

Shipping will be via USPS mail. No warranty or return on tapes. Click on any image to get a full size picture.

Me on my old chopper in Colorado Springs circa 1974. Nothing to do with tapes but I like the pic. Laid er down on the highway in the mountains in a stiff side wind and lost a couple pounds of hamburger off my backside. Traded it for a 1964-1/2 Mustang and bought a stock bike. 11-10-07 The Army doctor had little sympathy for motorcyclists so he put me back on duty. Had to pull a 24 hour guard duty with my ass on fire literally. So I took some leave and drove 1000 miles home (on pillows) in my car and my family fixed me up. Had my butt up in the air for a week! And they think poor medical care in the military is a new issue! This was originally a Honda 450 with dual overhead cams. A nice little pocket rocket for it's time. I had traded a Triumph 650 Bonneville (bad trade for me) for this thing. The original 1966 450 Honda had a heavy BMW influence on it. I was lucky enough to get a stock '66 450 and completely rebuild it. Someday I'll post some pix of it - you won't believe it's a Honda.

Here's my Kawasaki KZ-1000. Except for the Kerker 4-into-1 exhaust, this bike was stock. Can you believe it in 1980? And the sucker would do a 12 second 1/4 mile. It would top off somewhere around 140 mph if you could stand the June bugs whacking ya. I once had it up to 65 mph in 1st gear. Also did a wheelie at 60 mph coming onto a freeway ramp in second gear. YOWSAH! I know bikes are much faster today but this is one of the ancestors along with the Suzuki's and other bikes that got fast bikes to where they are today.
