Hello

Looking for PT1 ideally but would also consider a PT Too or Export

A Funk Firm LSD also considered

Must be in good condition.

Thanks

If you fancy a project, I have a poorly LPT GTI. It still runs of sorts but has the usual fried internal power supply. I would not consider it safe to use as it even if it holds speed.

Nice though they are I personally found a very big jump in SQ from LPT to PT1. Another big step up with the Vector goodies fitted.
Never used a Rega arm on my PTI and PTI Vector but I've read often they aren't a match made in heaven. I have a Zeta on mine. You could of course sell a Rega 300 etc on. The EBay one listed at the end with an IEC socket!? looks rather sorry - interesting price too (:
The FF one looks lurvely.

Good luck and don't forget to consult the guys on VinylEngine for any info - especially top man Tim Bissell who last time I was in touch was making 'mini-anni' conversions. He also sorted some issues with my deck and I am completely satisfied with the thing and couldn't imagine ever selling.
I do have a couple of 'spare' PT1s but they probably need fettling having been stored for years and I have some other projects on the go.

If you buy a PT1/Too etc make sure the bearing jewel is good and if shipping is involved ensure the bearing is separated. Spares are fortunately available these days.
The lids don't always travel well with the decks in one parcel. I've seen sellers list the lid as free with the deck! Apologies if all this is old news but someone may gain from my experience.

Fix for this can be found on Vinyl Engine. Should be fairly easy for anyone who knows the basics.
