Summary:A tape guide structure, for use in a video cassette recorder ("VCR") into which a tape cassette is loaded, comprises a guide post and a post cap. The guide post is provided with a lower cylindrical portion and an upper cylindrical portion with a diameter less than that of the lower portion. The guide post is fixed to a deck. The post cap is provided with a head portion with a slant surface and is fixed on top of the guide post. According to the tape guide structure of the present invention, even though the tape cassette is loaded into the VCR with the tape loosened to the extend that it passes over the central axis of the guide post, the tape comes in contact with the slant surface of the head portion, thereby allowing the tape to be loaded into a correct position.
