Now getting hard to come by, particularly in this condition. In it's day this was Ortofon's top of the line MM cart. It's been away to Audio Origami for a check and clean, Jonnie says it looks brand new.

Also comes with an Ortofon 210 capacitor which clips to the cartridge pins and was supposed to flatten the frequency response if you found the cart too bright in your system. i prefered it without, but the option is there.

No original packaging but I will post in an old AT box.

Price is £80 plus post.

My first ever cartridge. Always sounded great. Anyone will find it hard to beat at the price. Hope it finds a good home.

The quality of the bass on these cart is awesome, quite special for the money IMHO.

I completely agree Mike. I guess this was the 2m black of its day. You couldn't get near it for the money in my opinion, it just doesn't look that flashy.

Indeed, straight sides, no nonsense.

Now on hold for Jamie.

I'll have it at the asking price should the on hold not work out if that's ok.
