For sale is a lovely example of the Goldring 88. I've owned this for about 10 years. The deck is running well having been fettIed again recently with a re-greased motor and re-lubricated bearing. The bearing was upgraded to a ceramic ball running on a PTFE thrust pad some years ago which gives very low friction. This motor unit is lovely and works well. The platter mat has seen better days but I always used it with a white Funk Firm Achromat to great effect.

The plinth is a multilayer birch ply construction set up for 2 arms (9" to 10") . I ran many arms on this over the years from Rega's and Linn's to Jelco's and even a Spacearm. I will include a piece of correct birch ply for making fresh armboards (easy to do) and will include the various ones I made over the years (2x Rega, 1x Linn, 1xADC). The two on at the moment are both for Jelco SA-375h (Sumiko MMT) at Rega geometry.

I'm loath to sell this one as its such a lovely combo but it was superseded in my system some time ago and space is getting tight. I really need to stop hoarding!

I can't post this as the plinth is really very heavy with the Lenco atop and I can't find the motor transport screws at the moment. I'd suggest pickup from near Chester. £350 collected.

Very nice and at a decent price. Lovely turntables the G88 and G99, I've had both.

Pop a low cost Jelco tonearm on this like a 250ST and it will make really excellent sounds.
