Yep, correct sir.
Apparently made to compete with the likes of the technics 1210 .
Nice quality and heavy.

Andrew, you and Jamie are evil children to keep finding these interesting turntables and showing them off lol. Seriously though that Hitachi looks in lovely condition and nicely made, the arm looks quite substantial too.

Hi Ian, trouble is mate I know absolutely nothing about turntables ! And this came with hundreds of Albums too .
I’m going to recap it before I do anything with it .

Why? 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Leave it alone if it works OK mate. :)

The speed fluctuates very slightly Geoff , after a little research on the net it is apparently 2 caps that are responsible ( the black ones ) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180920/8faedb3429899319bb64d89bc536b5f5.jpg
