I understand that this isn't necessarily a vinyl related equipment question, but I wasn't sure where else to ask it. Recently my tape deck has been letting out a high pitched buzzing/humming sound (more than normal tape hiss) when I'm playing a tape. The deck is a Sherwood (not sure of the model) that we got pre-owned and have only had it for about a year and a half, but the problem didn't start until a couple months ago, and I had been using it regularly prior and it had been doing fine. It's duel cassette, and the noise only seems to happen on the play head, but not the second play/record head, and ONLY when the tape is playing. I'm relatively new to collecting tapes, so I'm not sure if this is a common issue, and a Google search only results in links so car forums with little to no helpful information. Thanks in advance for any help!
