While digging through my collection of pedal steel stuff, I found a Paul Franklin tape. One of my many goodies that probably came from eBay but who know. I've been collecting stuff like this for nearly 20 years now.
Anyway, tonight I started to listen to it expecting to hear some cool pedal steel stuff. Turns out that it's a guitar tape. Ok fine. The volume was very low on the tape and only one channel (left) would play at all. Now I'm playing this in a $700 tape deck in my studio. I though just to be sure, I'll drive my truck down to the trash and try listen in there. Same result.
When I got back home, I tried the Tascam deck again and now there's nothing. I went back to my truck and still nothing. The tape has erased and I'm positive that my tape deck didn't cause it. I didn't hit any record buttons or anything like that. The tape just died.
I'd like to get it replaced but I couldn't find any contact info for PF.
Any suggestions?

Hi Gary,
Its probably because your tape has wrinkled a little, and you are listening to the back side of the tape now.
I used to have a complete collection of everything. Still has the tapes "Brent Mason Hot Country Guitar Licks Part 3" (about hammering and pull off)
and
Brent Mason Swing and Jazz Licks Part 1 (also about Django Reinhard licks)
Kind regards,
Henning

| Gary - Same thing happened to me, found out that I laid the cassette tape (it was from one of my first steel lessons)on top of my steel right next to the pickups. The magnet in the pickups erased the entire tape. From now on I don't sit anything on top of my steel. Lesson learned |

I suppose that's a possibility. The tape WAS sitting by my big TV for a while. Still, seems like it would take a BIG magnetic field to erase the whole tape while it's just sitting.
I think the first suggestion might be the real answer though. I'm going to go through the whole tape and look for a fold.
