An apparatus and method for accurately locating a record-playback head with respect to a tape carried within a conventional tape cassette. The cassette is oriented within a cradle by means of a pair of parallel guide pins which engage the alignment openings of the cassette. A playback-record head is mounted upon a mounting clip which defines a "U" in cross-section having a record-playback head mounting leg and an alignment leg. The alignment leg defines two alignment surfaces which cooperate with the guide pins to accurately position the clip and the recordplayback head carried thereon with respect to the cradle and a cassette carried therein. -1-
