TECHNICS SL1210/1200 MK2 TONEARM – BLACK – SPARES AND REPAIRS
This tonearm was on a Technics turntable and it was essentially working but the tonearm height adjust was stuck. I tried to take it apart and free the height adjust ring up again, which was all going so well until I put it back together and the tonearm ring seized up again and seems stuck fast. I do not have the correct grease or means to loosen it up again and the main problem is that the tonearm base is in the wrong position, so if you put the tonearm back in the deck, the tonearm will face the wrong way. So that is the first and last time I try to fix a tonearm with the height adjust stuck!
Nearly all the parts are there and it may be able to be rectified by someone skilled. The tonearm is in very clean cosmetic order, the bearings seem good and the anti skate works well. It also plays sound, although I did notice that when moving the phono leads, one of the leads makes a buzzing sound from time to time so maybe this phono lead needs replacing and re-soldering.
I have made a little video at home with a cartridge on the arm so you can see exactly what you are buying. You can see this here –
Depending on your browser/device, if you cannot see the above video, you can see it if you copy and paste the following link into your browser – http://www.youtube.com/vtX_xJ7TROp4 The unit comes as pictured with the locking plate and screws too, but these cannot be screwed on with the tonearm in the wrong position. There is no tonearm weight, cartridge or ground wire, other than the one to the pitch control. It be well bubblewrapped and packaged for safe transit and I will take photos of the packaging before sending for peace of mind before handing over to Royal Mail. Please note, this tonearm is sold as per the description and seen images with no guarantees. Therefore no returns are possible under any circumstances, by purchasing you agree to these terms. Many thanks.
