Hi
Can anyone identify the back bracket shown in the photos. I believe it maybe for a BKT/BET. It is approx. 9" from the mount to the top of the bracket and 3½" from the mount to the centre of the tonearm hole.. It has an 'oval' shaped mounting to the cabinet.
Thanks
Brian

I think you have it right. Looks just like the one I have on my BKT.

It could be for a Columbia BQ. That's similar to a BKT. The BQ has a horizontal carriage. The tone arm looks short, so that is why I think it is from a BQ.

Hi Harvey
Thanks for your reply. I have a BQ, which has the same back bracket as the BO,which is longer than this one. The tonearm is the full length, probably the photo angle. Both my BQ/BO have the reproducer on top. I think this fits a machine with the reproducer at an angle in front. Thanks for your help I am looking to sell this bracket as I bought it for my BO to find it was too small. Anyone interested please contact me.
Regards Brian
