JVC - JL-A1 - Semi-automatic Turntable

JVC JL-A1 semi-automatic belt-drive turntable

Made in Japan

Semi-automatic means: the arm automatically returns to the resting position at the end of the record, and the player powers off

Rare and very good and stable turntable from JVC, in very good condition

Beautiful vintage looks with a sprung metal chassis and wooden plinth, combined with the smoke-colored dust cover

Completely cleaned, lubricated and speed re-tuned according to factory specifications

The player has been extensively tested and works very well, including the auto-return

Nice clear dust cover without damage, the cover has been repolished. Only light signs of use (the usual shallow scratches here and there). However, these scratches are not clearly visible in the photos

Hinges still in good condition and the mounting lugs intact, the lid stays nicely open as it should

Plays nicely, steadily and sounds fantastic

Statically balanced S-shaped tonearm. Equipped with the original JVC headshell with cartridge and good needle

The player is supplied including 45 RPM adapter for singles
