I had a request to fit a Pioneer PL-71 tonearm to a Technics SK-1210 mk2.

This is something I had done myself many, many moons ago.
The customer read about it.
The arm was good fathers. The Pioneer deck sadly no longer around.

The Acos made PL-71 tonearm Requires a very low mounting point.
Twice as low as a standard Jelco!

No problem, I have very thick solid Ebony blocks.
Lots of dishing required.

Here is my PL-71 arm fitted to my test mule deck.

Off to Norway.
