Very nice deal you got there although, it looks like the reproducer could be rebuilt.

You are correct, the mica is damaged and the gaskets are shot. I have the parts on hand so its
just a matter of finding the time. The brake needs adjusting also I noticed.

It also looks like someone covered the turntable with velour.

Nice machine- they've got an honest solid charm.

Thanks Estott. I agree, the green velvet is definitely not standard issue! :lol:
