Tested Used Vintage Condition– Powers On But Needs Repair. Showing Signs Of Normal Wear For Age. Scratches, Fading, Staining, Marks, Scrapes, Missing Rubber Foot, Etc. From Being Stored And From Use. Sold As-Is For Parts Or Repair.

Important Condition Note (As-Is / For Repair):
The player powers on cleanly and the platter spins smoothly at both 33 and 45 RPM speeds. The tonearm moves completely free and loose. However, when playing a record, the needle stays stuck in a repeating loop and produces a heavily muffled, fluctuating sound where voices cannot be made out. Extra tracking weight does not fix the loop.

Because of the muffled sound and repeating playback, the internal rubber suspension or ceramic cartridge elements have degraded with age and will need to be replaced or repaired to get it fully working again. Perfect as a nostalgic display piece, photo prop, or a fix-up project for a hobbyist!

All items are sold "As Is" in "As Found" condition and gently washed with mild soap.
