Hi from the UK
I am new to this discussion forum.I am hoping that someone out there has got a Grundig TS-1000 tape recorder and will be able to help me. I am looking for :
Service manual & circuit diagrams in English and
Where to source the parts for this machine - especially the movig/mechanical parts.
My taperecorder is still in perfect working order but some parts are now wearing out and need replacing.

Hello there!
It's quite hard to get hold of mechanical stuff for a TS1000. Grundig doesn't have any spares left. I've been told they cleared all stocks over 10 years ago. Everything left went into the shredder. Might be a good idea to get another one off ebay for spares.
What exactly are you looking for?

Hello TanB,
It is quite rare to find a Grundig TS1000 on eBay in the UK and it would be a great shame to use one of these nice tape recorders for spares
hock:
You could try contacting C. Braddock at The Tape Recorder Centre, Blackpool, England (Tel: +44 (0)1253 345049) to see if he has a manual or spare parts? He has his full address and email details included on this page

I've just had a look around ebay.co.uk, and it surprises me how little r2r tape recorders there are. It seems that Germany is an exception in Europe in that regard. :oah:
Greetings,
David

Hello David,
I check eBay.co.uk for r2r frequently and there are often 200 or so tape recorders on there - but at this present time there is only about 50. Perhaps all of the sellers are on their summer holiday? (in the rain!!) But when I check eBay.de it is easy to see that there are more r2r on there.
Regarding Grundig - It is usually easy to find a TK14, TK20, TK144 etc. on eBay.co.uk, but the larger Hi-Fi maschines are hard to find.
Greeting,
Peter.
