Description
Vintage JVC AL-A151BKX auto-return turntable record player from 1987 in working condition. Belt drive 2 speed (33-1/3/45 rpm) and comes mounted with Pickering cartridge with DLE stylus. All cords included.

Platter is made of aluminium alloy with rubber layer. Its automation turns on only when you return tonearm to its original position after playing a vinyl record. Cosmetics wise, the turntable is in very good vintage condition. Top plastic cover shows minimal wear, scuffs and scratches for its age with sturdy hinges and has no cracks.

All functions working but there are some scratchy sound audible possibly due to age-related issues. May probably need some servicing, lube and minor cleaning for better performance. Great for someone that loves to tinker with old machines.

Sold "as is". Cash and carry only.
