Not sure what to make of this listing. The 301 would surely be too high for the tonearm?.

Re: Expert Junior
Interestingly, it does actually work, thanks to the five inch depth between the top of the deck-board and the underside of the lid. I have just tried it on my Junior which is identical. It is necessary, of course, to be able to twist the soundbox anti-clockwise on the tonearm to counteract the new disc height and maintain good tracking. Only EMG/Expert/Astra/Meltrope soundboxes can do this easily by design. Not sure how the Limit box is attached !

Douglas Fitzpatrick used a Garrard 301 in his enormous machine (Expert Senior cabinet) although in more recent years it has been returned to a Garrard No. 10 spring motor, if memory serves.
