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
