Skipped out of work, today... feeling fluish and I didn't want to infect the rest of our paltry work force.

So, it grabbed me to play Nirvana Unplugged. It seemed fitting for the day. This is a CD-R copy, I burned, playing back on my Sony CDP-X7ESD. In the process of buying another Sony behemoth - CDP-X777ES.

wonder who knows that story....
i understand that basically its true...
that album was responsible for the new designation for an album...
it caused the creation of the platinum album...because it sold so many copies....
kinda outgrew the gold...

I got one just like it Joe. I have contemplated keeping it on my Rek O Kut and adding another arm in the back but I wouldn't even know where to begin. I know that it would need to be about the same length.
I think your pretty much stuck needing a 12” effective length tonearm for that ROK

I haven't measured the length but it won't be long now. I have to get it into the shop before more snow flies. Is that a weird hard to find length? I'll have to think it over, but it would be nice to have a modern-ish arm but I don't want to get rid of the coffin arm just yet. I think it would look great in a.... LIME GREEN :)

Just need the specs on the arm to get the spindle to pivot distance.
