HISTORY:

Very sad to see yet another very nice old English Garrard turntable become an 'organ donor' but at least this component may give new life to another Garrard enthusiast/restorer out there somewhere!

Ex the SL-72B (1970's) Garrard turntable

Early Garrard gear is just so good, particularly the 301/401

While the SL-72B was a nicely engineering machine, oh dear those plastic bits and pieces (tonearm rest etc) just didn't last the years and I have decided to make this SL-72B an "organ donor"

So, let's get on with describing the spare part I am offering here - remember, I am offering 'organs' from the turntable, the SL-72B is now a 'non-turntable' as I have carefully and completely dismantled it!

NOTE: Keep in mind that many Garrard turntable parts from this era are interchangeable with other Garrard models - PLEASE CHECK YOUR SERVICE MANUAL TO ESTABLISH THE SUITABILITY OF THIS PART TO YOUR OWN TURNTABLE.

 

GARRARD  TURNTABLE - Tonearm Counter-Balance Weight

As pictured

NOTE: the tonearm is offered separately (another advertisement HERE) for maximum buyer flexibility

Solid metal (dull grey) polished with a "rubber or soft plastic" centre piece which slides onto the back of the tonearm

The centre piece has 3x rims inside

Keeping in mind that this counter-balance was fitted to the HEXAGONAL shaped tonearm, it may not prove to be useful with the more traditional round tonearms of other turntables
