Good for a replacement tonearm or perhaps for that "project" turntable
C.D.C (Chup Denki Corporation) in Saitama, Japan
Basic Entry level turntable
Plastic plinth
Pressed metal base
Aluminium diecast platter
Semi-Automatic
C.D.C ST 510 Straight Tonearm with counter balance
Standard 9" format arm
Simple plastic/metal pivot
Headshell connector could be changed, attached to the tonearm shaft with two small Phillips screws
Tonearm shaft is aluminium
Actual measurement from pivot to headshell connector 184mm
Tonearm diameter is 7mm
Tonearm mass is estimated to be low (under 10g) although I cannot measure this, I have no scales that will measure weights this low.
Counter balance is solid metal, threaded
Brass tonearm support is 65mm length, with a slot ring at 41mm for the original locking circlip (NOT SUPPLIED)
Photograph shows the pivot system disassembled, it is very easy to reassemble.
Another photograph shows the connector close up, note the flat spot on the top and a very slight raised area at the bottom.
Tonearm is stored disassembled and it will be provided to the buyer this way - if being shipped it is the safest way of packing it.
