Bush PSR358 Mechanism

The Bush PSR358 tape drive mechanism and chassis are plastic, and there is very little metal apart from the springs and screws. However, it is still a robust little player as the plastic components are thick.

The chassis is much smaller than usual because this player does not have the rewind function therefore simplifying the design. I liked the design of the clutch assembly for the take-up spool, as it seems to work very well, and appears to be more reliable.

The Bush Corporation make some wonderful products that are always worth buying.
