Goldring Lenco GL-75
Transcription Turntable
With infinitely adjustable speed (between lower than 16 RPM and higher than 78 RPM) and fitted with MM Cartridge and perfect stylus, this classic GL-75 is in full and perfect working. However….. It’s in nasty physical condition, in a nasty home-made plinth. This has nothing going for it in the looks department (see close-up pics).
I was going to cannibalise it for spares but it seems a shame because as previously mentioned - it works a treat. Maybe someone out there wants what is basically a high quality, vintage, idler drive turntable, which performs exactly as it should - and for not much money.
