We have just had the table completely gone through by our turntable
technician, cleaning inside and out. Entire automatic mechanism was
disassembled, cleaned of lubrications that had turned to 'glue', and
re-lubed, including: the 'Actuating Slide and Pawl', and both plates,
reconditioned all rubber parts including the 'intermediate' idler wheel,
motor disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed, 'main cam', 'thrust washer and
ball race', 'cushion ring' all disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed, 'trip
pawl' cleaned for 'smooth end of album cycle, then he re-set "lead-in &
lead-out" tone arm adjustment. Cartridge carrier contacts burnished. Test
played and successfully stacked and dropped 6 LP's! All 'auto' functions
work great too! Original dust cover just had fresh buff and looks fabulous.
Includes standard 1/2" mount head shell, with a Shure M55E, magnetic
cartridge, with an 'inspected' elliptically cut diamond stylus, already
installed. (If you prefer an up-grade you may also choose from our
selection of new Audio Technica cartridges that we can also set up and ship
with it for the additional cartridge cost.) Again, this table looks
near new and works great!
Beautiful and Super quality British made Garrard Syncro-Lab 72 table. These
are true classics. Table is in great shape and has been functionally
restored to fine working condition! Fully automatic operation.
Features include:

Again, our turntable tech has completely gone through this Garrard, Syncro-Lab
72B, turntable. Original 'Smoked Plexi', Dust cover is in overall good
structural shape and as it just had a fairly 'labor intensive' buff, looks
incredible, not even accounting for it's 40 year age. All functions work
great! While it does not have the 'single play' spindle included, it does
come with the tall 'multi-play' / 'stacker' spindle. Includes our standard
30 day limited warranty. Measures 16.75" wide x 15.25" deep x 8" tall and
weighs 15 lbs.

Made in England

SHIPPED TO BEAU IN CALIFORNIA
This
is pretty much the 'Holy Grail' for vintage turntables, and only the
second we have had thru the shop in 19 years. This one is also a much
better example than the first one we had back in '04. This one has the
much coveted SME 3009 MK II tone arm (at the time advertised as; "THE
BEST PICK-UP ARM IN THE WORLD"! and was the tone arm that was also typically spec'd for Connoisseur '2-spd' and Thorens TD-124 tables), and an optional, factory made wooden
base. It also comes with an original ADC, Model ONE cartridge. It also
has the typically optional, 'strobe marked' platter. It's pretty much
got 'ALL THE NUTS'! FINALLY, our
current senior technician was up to the task, and refurbished this one
beautifully and CORRECTLY! (he actually owns the same version Garrard
301, with the exact same tone-arm. He loves restoring / working on these
old British Machines!)
ü
Our technician has completely and
EXTENSIVELY gone through and 'Certified' this unit
which involves disassembly (not an easy task on
this table), cleaning
inside and out, COMPLETELY DISASSEMBLING, cleaning and re-lubricating
internal mechanisms and the
balance of efforts listed below. Total technician time to restore
29 HOURS!
ü
Table was completely disassembled down to the plinth
-
ü
Internal mechanisms removed, disassembled, cleaned,
inspected, refurbished as necessary, re-lubed as necessary and
ultimately re-assembled
ü
Platter spindle bearing disassembled, cleaned, inspected and re-lubed.
ü
Same was also done with the sintered, bronze bearing, which was still in
fine shape.
-
ü
Eddy brake actuator arm had all three iso springs replaced
ü
Arm lift inspected / tested
ü
Tone-Arm
'Bed Plate' has NEW, custom manufactured isolation / mounting rubber
installed
ü
SME 3009 MK II tone arm 'knife edge' bearing disassembled, inspected and
cleaned
-
ü
Rubber mat
still supple and flexible with no
hardening (does have a few of the typical, short,
radial cracks from the spindle hole).
ü
Platter
drive motor disassembled, cleaned, re-lubed and reassembled
-
ü
Idler tire was 'crack free' and only required our normal 're-surfacing'
-
ü
While the platter speed was 100% 'spot on', it was at the end of the
speed control's travel. We corrected this by adding to the original
magnetics so that it's now 100% when the control is positioned in the
'CENTER' of it's range.
ü
Platter speed checked and verified for
100%
accuracy with our factory test strobe disc following
above work.
ü
Platter
tested for 'true flat' and no 'run-out'.
ü
We
installed 24kt gold plated RCA jacks on the rear panel, and are
including a pair of much better quality RCA interlinks (as opposed to
the original and 'fixed' anemic cables)
ü
We
installed 24kt Gold Cartridge / head-shell leads instead of the 'as
found' 'soldered-on' wires that were connecting the cartridge to
facilitate cartridge changes / up-grades in the future.
ü
AC
line / Power cord was replaced
ü
Tested / analyzed and passed for motor noise and 60Hz hum.
ü
Aftermarket, Audio-Vox, GB-3 'Walnut' (but looks more 'Teak') wood veneer case lemon oiled and looks
great
ü
We also
reinstalled and optimized
the tone arm for the originally purchased / installed ADC, Model One,
magnetic cartridge.
You can readily connect this table to any receiver, Integrated amplifier
with a standard magnetic phono input, or a Pre-amp. To connect to
computer for burning CD's just order one of our inexpensive Phono
Pre-Amps and cable kits.
ü
Cartridge / head
shell ‘overhang’ adjusted
using shop calibration scale.
ü
Unit
tested with our myriad of test records, one of
which included; Shures' 'Cartridge Obstacle Course' record
ü
Unit
test
cycled through MANY LP’s
flawlessly
This was a 'one owner / consumer / audiophile' owned unit and was not
used commercially. The only issues that we did not correct for was the
single owner inscribed his id info on the plinth top (left, rear corner
mounting 'ear') and underneath and
laterally on the tone-arm (see photos above).

If you're
looking at this then there's not much we can tell you that you
likely don't
already know. It is the "Oil Bearing" version, with
the originally, optional / upgrade, strobe marked
(60Hz), 5 lb
aluminum platter. And again, it just had
the above itemized restoration and is ready to go. In
BEAUTIFUL condition all around. Original White Enamel finish on
chassis in great shape. The
VERY SOUGHT AFTER SME 3009 Mark II tone arm is in equally great
performing shape. The tone arm includes 'one'
of the "Rider Weights". For excessively heavy cartridges, you may need
to source an additional "Rider Weight" (not sure why anyone would want
to run and 'excessively heavy' cartridge). Table
comes up to speed in about 3-4 revolutions (very heavy 5 lb cast
aluminum platter) and stays on. Motor runs perfectly and is "Dead"
silent for noise. This table is likely from 1961-63,
based on it's serial, and production quantities over the years this
model spanned, and the edition of the manual. Based on the condition of the
idler and the bronze bearing, it has
seen little use in it's life. Owner took
immaculate care of it and the entire system. Comes
with all of it's original paperwork, including the 'brown, hard cover
Garrard 301 Transcription Turntable Owners / Users manual, original
Motor inspection report, the SME 3009
mk II owners manual and alignment protractor, and the owners manual for the ADC Model One Cartridge
and more!
Measures overall 17.5" wide
x 15." front to back. Table has our standard
30 day limited warranty.

We have just had the table completely gone through cleaning inside and
out. Extensive service to the internal mechanism taking about 4 tech
hours. Entire 'Auto' mechanism disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed.
Platter bearing completely disassembled, cleaned of old varnished lube
and re-lubed for trouble-free service. New main drive belt installed.
'Toothed' changer belt cleaned and reconditioned. Lead-in / Lead-out
adjusted for typical albums. Unfortunately we don't have a 'Long /
Changer / stacker' spindle for this one, only the short 'single play'.
Speed checked and verified for accuracy with our factory strobe disc.
Gimbal bearing, counter weight and anti-skating all adjusted and
verified for accuracy. Stop mechanism adjusted and tested. All 'Auto'
functions work great! We also installed new RCA patch cords and
're-sprung' the cartridge carrier contacts. Unfortunately while the
original dust cover is not in 'banner' cosmetic condition due to typical
scuffing, it is intact, crack free, and did have a light buff. Both
cover hinges do function fine. We also re-installed and optimized the
existing Pickering V-15, magnetic cartridge with it's, elliptically cut
diamond stylus. (If you prefer an up-grade you may also choose from
our selection of new Audio Technica cartridges that we can also set up
and ship with it for the additional cartridge cost.) You can readily

Again, our tech has completely gone through it disassembling, cleaning,

isolation and function of internal mechanism. ......
