Help - has the head gone on my s-video recorder?

Symptoms:
* stereo sound fine
* picture marred by smearing black horizontal lines, worse around print on screen. This replay evident on both a new JVC machine and another older s-video machine. It is still just evident on the recording machine although the picture is still watchable.
What foxes me is that previous experience has been that when the heads start to wear the sound becomes distorted. However maybe with s-video, picture break up is the first to go. Anyone know?
