In 1971---Stephens recorders came out with a no capstan and no pinch roller design. Looked a lot like 3m machines. I've read they were extremely gentle on tape...but as you said not so much on the rewinding operations.
Follow Ups:
Pretty much everyone there agrees that the Studers were superior in their function and tape handling, but that Stephens had much better sound.
I like the Ampex MM1200. It's got slam!

It's one of the reasons many of the bands that came out in the 70s and 80s use it to record their album because of its sound quality. Such as Steely Dan, Grateful Dead, Queen, heck even Neil Diamond just to name a few...Steely Dan's classic album Aja was recorded on Stephens' 24-track...
