Description from the seller
Beautiful and fully working Akai AP-B1 automatic turntable ('Made in Japan').
The turntable has been checked, cleaned, and functions as it should. It delivers a beautiful, warm yet detailed playback.
Also the automatic return works without issues.
The cartridge and needle are in good condition, and the tonearm has been readjusted (needle pressure and anti-skating). The dust cover is still nicely clear, aside from superficial scratches appropriate to the age and a owner who has cared for it well.
The player looks very neatly cared for and is ready for immediate use.
