Another USA bound SME style adjustable armbase.
Machined from solid brass.
This one is for a Thomas Schick 12" tonearm, with twin nylon tipped grub screws to secure the arm pillar.
Also features a low profile of just 16mm from plinth surface to top of collar. This requirement was due to the customer's armboard arrangement.

It's going to look great on the brushed finish brass armboard the customer uses and with the 12" Schick mounted.
Here's a custom SME 3012 extra heavy main weight and rear weight.
The latter is drilled to take the side bar that carried a smaller fibre adjustment weight.
Lacquered to closely match the originals.
