Not that my 412-B would ever go up for sale but wow what a retun it could be. I bought before they went stupid.

Oh My that's purdy , I love that very early 3009 SME arm, you don't see those very often and worth about half the price of the sale! I'd love to have that early headshell too , I had one on mine, but lost it in one of my many house moves

I also have a 412 with a Fairchild arm which is supposed to be fairly rare, I bought the 412 mostly to be a parts peice but it is a perfectly functioning TT.

Fairchilds are very basic machines, just like I like them, nothing fancy, two belt isolation system that works well.

Yep, that's why I love my Thorens so much, nothing fancy, just gets the job done. And it'll out live me

And perhaps your children.

My fairchild is the same age I am, and yes, i am sure it would out live my Children.

Craig I also have a TD 160, but only with the stock arm, one heck of a TT.
