Description from the seller
For Sale: SME 3009 Series III Tonearm – Mint Condition, Boxed, with ADC Cartridge & Original Receipt
A rare opportunity to own a mint-condition SME 3009 Series III, originally produced in the late 1970s to early 1980s—making this example around 45 years old. Despite its age, it remains in exceptional cosmetic and operational condition. The original SME box is included (a little battered with age), along with the original purchase receipt, adding great provenance for collectors.
Also included is an ADC cartridge. The stylus is used, suitable for testing and casual playback, while the cartridge body is ideal for fitting with a fresh stylus to unlock its full performance.

Please note there are no garantees on vintage electronic equipment and these items might need a technician to service it once in a while to protect it and your investment.
