Pearson,
Wiseguy is correct. Single video head and loud! My high school had one and I got to take it home and play with it when it was declared non--working surplus. I had no service literature and don't recall getting it to work. At the same time I was having a blast restoring some Sony TCV-2110 (?) 1/2 inch skip-field VTR's that needed various repairs including head problems, from a large inventory of about 5 machines to supply parts. I got setting up the head dihedral and penetration pretty good by feel. These were not designed to be set, you had to replace the whole head bar containing two factory aligned heads. I ended up using a pair of these for home video recording off TV and made a fine library of the original Outer Limits series.
These early VTR's are interesting to play with but they do take up a lot of room. Life is about choices. You might want to keep your girlfriend happy, although you could tell her truthfully that this model is much, much smaller than most VTR's that Ampex made!
