Pioneer PL-12D belt-drive turntable from 1974, in excellent physical condition and tested and working, weighing 7.5 kg, serial UG182020, with a built-in Nagaoka NM-66 cartridge and a new needle.
Description from the seller
The Pioneer PL-12D, a vintage turntable, is a manually belt-driven turntable from the early 1970s (produced between 1972 and 1976). With the legendary PL-12D and later the PL-12D Mk-2, Pioneer made hi-fi quality affordable for the masses. Due to its extremely reliable mechanism, wooden enclosure and iconic S-shaped tonearm, it remains a highly sought-after vintage classic.
The built-in cartridge is the Nagaoka NM-66. The stylus is still readily available (Tonar DS447 DS).
The turntable has been serviced (spindle and motor lubricated, new rubber belt), has a new stylus, is cleaned and tested. With detachable record cleaner Dust-Bug.
