I ordered this on 3rd December 2020 from Analogue Seduction, and it arrived on the 5th Jan 2021. Whilst I was waiting for it to arrive I was tempted by a used Benz Micro LP-S and bought that too, which arrived on the same day, and I've fallen in love with.
This is barely used - 5 hours absolute max. It’s a lovely sounding cartridge, and I’m sure it will probably improve as it breaks in, but I'm not using it and just had to fork out for a new TV. Due to it’s very limited usage on clean vinyl, it’s in immaculate condition. I’ve misplaced the final piece of padding from the box (if it came with some), so I’ll put something makeshift in to keep it secure for shipping.

RRP is £799 - I didn’t get the fancy wooden box for an additional £300.
For sale at £650 inc. postage to the UK, or collection from Leeds. Would prefer to avoid shipping abroad.
