A previous owner has disabled the automatic operation.

 

 

The good points:

 

 

SME easily changeable cartridge fitting, new stylus

 

Direct Drive with pitch control

 

Solid build in Japan

 

Lid in good condition

 

Great looks

 

Can be seen working

 

 

Not so good:

 

 

Strobe light not working.

 

Full manual operation means you need to manually lift the cueing rest under arm by edge to cue arm on record

 

Rear cables not pretty

 

 

So if you can tolerate the limitations this is a smart but manual turntable.

 

A more electronically inclined person could replace the strobe light.

 

 

 

The turntable is for collection only due to weight, glass lid and classic electronics do not always survive posting.
