    Default Wanted Turntable

    Looking for a really nice example. Open mind on make but not looking for a refurbishing project. Need not have an arm or Cart but Rega geometry or changeable arm board would ne nice. Condition paramount, mechanics and electrics to be in good order. Price to be dependent on age, condition. Etc.
    Can collect N/E area.

    I've got a really nice JVC TT71 mounted in a Cuban mahogany/bamboo plinth - has excellent hinged lid/Isonoe feet/Supra captive mains cable - armboard currently Hadcock, but can be supplied with a Rega geometry board - I can sort some pictures if you're at all interested. MH

    Apologies for crazy amounts of dust - something I fight a constant battle with, having a woodburner.
    The Cuban mahogany is from an 18th century table leaf - it is of the very finest grade, and is extremely dense - the central core is phenolic, with bamboo in between - my attempt at constrained layer damping. The rather unorthodox DIY Hadcock rebuild is not for sale - the armboard is currently an ebony laminate, but I would replace with a new one (I have got some Panzerholz knocking around...) I would also need to make a little brass cover for the current cable routing
