REEL TO REEL TAPE?

LOOKING FOR NEW OR UNUSED REEL TO REEL 10 INCH TAPES FOR RECORDING, LOOKED ON EBAY, GOOGLE, NOTHING.

SEEMS LIKE NO ONE IS MAKING THEM ANYMORE. ANY HELP? CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS? HOPE?

All modern tape formulas are backcoated now. They also have excellent stretch and strength properties so they are less likely to break. They are dead quiet and sound amazing. As I stated above ATR and RTM are the best tapes made. All of the master tapes that are being sold now for example from Acoustic Sounds are using these tapes to record their product. Buy with confidence, you can't go wrong with either of these tape choices.
