This is the classic 'AR Turntable', with wood veneer plinth. Complete with hinged perspex lid (not scratched), original tone arm fitted with a virtually unused Ortofon VMS20E MkII cartridge, and a brand new belt. I have no box, but it does come with the original instruction manual, two spare belts, and a top quality, custom made phono extension cable if desired.

£150 Buyer to collect. Location - Oxfordshire.

OK - 15" (approx) - that's front to back at the base of the plinth. Chris - I'm not sure about the arm (no markings), but I'll take a close up photo if you like?

Probably not - packing it up safely would be a nightmare. I may be coming up to Harrogate around mid-June. I would consider bringing it up with me if you're serious.

No, it's OK thanks - I was trying to clarify things for other folks.
The arm will have had an AR logo on top of the bearing housing if it's not still there. Prior to this version, they came with Linn LVX's - the AR one was better in my opinion.

Good luck with the sale!

OK. If you're really interested send me a PM with your mobile number maybe and we can talk about how to meet up. Looks like around 60 odd miles from Scarborough to Harrogate, but I guess the petrol would still be cheaper than the packaging / courier / postage / insurance...?
