A cassette tape recorder wherein lateral widthwise movement of a tape can be limited to assure stabilized feeding of the tape and prevent eventual damage to the tape. The tape recorder comprises a pair of cassette guide posts securely mounted on a stationary main base plate, and a tape guide mounted on a movable head carrying plate and having an upper widthwise movement limiting projection and a lower shorter widthwise movement limiting projection formed respectively adjacent upper and lower ends of a tape contacting face thereof for limiting lateral widthwise movement of a tape being fed along the tape contacting face of the tape guide. At least one of the cassette guide posts which opposes to the tape guide has a tapering profile presenting a lower large diameter portion and an upper small diameter portion which are opposed respectively to the lower and upper widthwise controlling projections of the tape guide.
