I have a slightly older model of the vcr in your picture. works great

Sony SLV-R1000, it's the top of the line "prosumer" grade SVHS VCR. It will make even normal VHS tapes look better, even non-SVHS ones.

Any HiFi labeled VCR should be fine. If you are wishing to transfer tapes to digital, then a more expensive S-VHS S-VIdeo machine would be better. Usually JVC. Having a built in TBC would be even better.

JVC's S-VHS VCRs are shit unless you get into the professional editing decks, which are quite cheap now.

t. former television producer who used to linear edit on tape a WHOLE LOT

i wasn't even aware S-VHS was even a thing. any recommendations on one that won't eat tapes?

Get a used pro unit or the SLV-R1000.

Linear editing is quite a bit different than simply wanting to watch a movie at the consumer level. I've owned 3 (now own 2) JVC S-VHS units. They are great and mine also has TBC, along with vertical stability options.

if a man did that he'd be arrested
