Can't resist showing off a bit- I'm fond of mine & have been trying a Meltrope out on it with good results- it just handled a Helen Morgan 12 inch quite well, though the tracking angle near the center is pretty fierce.

I have NO idea why this picture comes out sideways- the file was rotated & if you click on it the picture in upright.

I love the look, and like I said, fairly reasonable on EBay-UK but the shipping cost is more than the phonograph :o :o

It doesn't have to be if you shop around , I expect most Ebay sellers can't be bothered to shop around though.
As I say above if you get me the size and weight i'll find the cheapest price for you....
