Rare EMT model, sadly stored badly. Seems to be complete, most likely made between 1950 - 1955. Will end for sale, to much to do for me. Or should I ...

With you, rare EMTs fall from the trees like apples and pears elsewhere... I would keep it... of course you can also sell it to me for the usual 100,-€, then you have made a deal grin grin grin

Merry Christmas!

Wow....we have a lot of barnes in the Netherlands but I guess none have such a beauty.

I think you should buy this beauty and get it back running again. Unless the price is rediculus!

Buy! Buy! Buy! grin I would have.

Good luck,

You should absolutely try to acquire it if it is not idiotically expensive! Make it a project and let it take time to restore it. That is definitely my advice. Do you have any more pictures? Buy!!!!!

This R 80 S has two idlers. The other one is connected somehow to tonearm lift. If there are better images or manual for this feature I would like to see it.
