Fascinating Christopher and I too have never seen an EMG cast (aluminium ?) turntable. I do have an original Mk X base case with goose-neck tonearm but it came without a motor and had only the initial section of the broken horn---pictured on Chunny's superb gramophone museum website. I have restored it with the correct Paillard GGR 255 motor which fitted exactly and was clearly what it was supplied with originally. The escutcheon, unique to Paillard, also confirms this. I have used a pressed steel turntable (not Paillard, sadly) with felt as per all the EMG and Experts I have come across with the Swiss motor. Interestingly, the internal conduit is cast in bronze which I think may also be unique to the Mk X before cheaper aluminium was used in later Mk X variants as the depression took hold.Oedipus wrote: Sure enough, my Mark X has an EMG turntable on its Paillard motor, a very heavy casting with a built in cork mat.
You have a very rare instrument Sir !
