I feel another Garrard coming on .. to complement the Thorens and the Lenco and refresh my memory.
I have a few plinth ideas and a useful high mass arm sitting idle ...
Anyone got one kicking around idle? (if you pardon the pun). I don't mind if I need to take it along the M4 to Loricraft for a service.

Will PM you Tom.
Might this be of interest?

Ali,
Have you decided to let go of the 401, which I sent you a few months ago?
Best wishes,
Charlie

Hi Charlie,
No definitely not! :-)
I will be keeping that, the one I've offered to Tom is the unit I already had.
The NOS one will be going to Loricraft for a full service.

I have a fully refurbished 401 with a new gun metal grey finish, Tom. The paint job was professionally done in N. Ireland. Martin did the strip down, clean and lubrication.
You know where I am..haha..

Out of curiosity who in NI did it ?
I have a fully refurbished one for sale as well, with an unused since refurb bearing. All done by Dominic Harper at NWA and in excellent condition.

Sorry guys I should have posted much earlier on this thread, but Ali and I agreed a deal quite early on. I'm now pondering the offer of a superb plinth from Monty which should get me up and running even quicker than I anticipated.

Very nice 401 this one, seen and heard it many times, could be tempted myself tbh.

Nick what sort of money are you thinking?
Was hoping for £500 or thereabouts as it is in A1 condition.

Neil - It was someone on the Wam . I dont know if he is a member here. However, I have forgotten his name and the 'my activity' facility doesnt go back far enough. It was powdercoated gunmetal grey. Beautifully done I might add.
