AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Akai AP-001 is a vintage, auto stop, belt-drive turntable from the 1970s. Akai products from this era are known for their classic Japanese quality. The Akai has an auto stop feature, (platter stops at the end of the record.) and can play both 33.3 and 45 RPM records.
This turntable will need to be plugged into an amplifier with a built in turntable preamplifier or you will need a phono preamplifier to use it with an AUX type input.

The dustcover does have some scratches and a small damage, see pictures.
