Saving Tempest
Cruisin' on my Bluebird
In fine working order, was rebuilt about five years ago in a complete restoration. Asking about half of what that cost, $175. Will provide a new generic headshell if needed, you can install your own cartridge as you like. Also have a Pioneer PC-11 cartridge with no needle, one can be had cheap online but it's conical and from an older model, you can have it if you want though.
