Description from the seller

A legendary piece of Swiss audio engineering. The Lenco L 70, manufactured by Lenco AG in Burgdorf, Switzerland between 1958 and 1967, is one of the most celebrated vintage turntables among audiophiles – renowned for its exceptionally heavy zinc platter, precision conical-axis idler wheel drive, and infinitely variable speed control.

This example has been professionally cleaned, tested and serviced by an audio specialist. The pick-up and drive wheel have been replaced due to aging, and the turntable now comes fitted with a working Tesla hi-fi VM 2202 magnetic cartridge, stylus included and tested.
