Hi Gerry, That great. thankyou very much for the info. I find it very hard
to beleave how good of shape this unit is in, The stylist is like brandnew
and the whole turntable is like mint but it has no deck to mount it on. it
looks like someone took it off or it was used in a consul type cabnet. Rick
