This tonearm was marketed in this country as an Audio Developments AD309K in the 1970's but is in fact a japanese tonearm - see picture of box end.
I bought it to go with my Goldring 88 build but is not suitable for me as I have an Audio Technica cartridge with threaded body so could not fit to the fixed carrier in this headshell.
As can be seen from the images below it is in as new condition, the chrome is bright with no pitting. Bearings are super smooth. It's 210mm from bearing to mounting threads so should be a drop in for an L75.

I paid £95 plus £10 postage for it a week or so ago from Monty so this is the price I am asking.
