to remove the heads and send them to JRF Magnetic Sciences for

Thank you but that's really not an option. 9 / 10 sellers would not
agree to this.
I've bought and sold multiple mtr-90's over the years and a head report
was always part of the transaction. But the head report for this deck
would probably cost as much as the deck ...
Have you ever owned an analog multitrack? Or lived with one that is old,
even if it didn't have a lot of miles on it?
I've had students, against my recommendations, buy them and end up
spending a lot more $ on them than they ever anticipated.
If you really wanna add analog tape to your arsenal, let me suggest you
get a stereo half track to dump your mixes too.
