Technics RS-1506 Reel-to-Reel (Studio Used, Signed) Add to favourites

Newly refurbished

This is the original Technics RS-1506 reel-to-reel tape recorder used in Louie Vega’s studio — a powerful analog workhorse central to his sound design, sample lifting, and archival process.

“This reel-to-reel was how I’d pull sounds off old records — it was my way of getting that warmth and realness into the track.” — Louie Vega

Used during his deep crate-digging and sample-chopping phases, this machine was part of Louie’s signal chain for countless remixes, edits, and grooves. It includes both Technics-branded 10” metal reels and shows wear consistent with professional use.
