Hi,

Sometime ago I bought an old tonearm which looks from the late 1940s / early 1950s.



I loved the head which looks like those old 1930s USA trains.

The arm was in bad shape. There were two holes in the head.



I decided to send the tonearm to Serge in the Ukraine for a full restoration job. I am pleased with the outcome. He did a great job!







I am planning to use this arm with a GE RPX.

Kind regards,

Niels

Thanks. That was original. So I asked Serge to repaint that red again.

Hopefulle I will recieve the arm in the next couple of days to  try it out.

Have a nice weekend

That's lovely work. Congratulations on a stunner!

Very happy to hear that Serge is able to continue his trade in the current situation.
