Anyone got an AS212 they feel like parting with?

Pref with cable but NP if not.

I appear to be sorted. Picked up a Telefunken S500 from Germany which I'll take the arm off.

Is that an AS212 on there? I have a RS212 on a TD124 MK2, my uncle bought it new many decades ago. It has an Ortofon SL15E fitted.

What is the difference between AS212 and RS212?

I think the AS is the cheap one. I quite fancy trying an RS on my TD124 myself.

I quite like the RS212, works pretty well, much easier to set up that the vintage SME's.
