*****Has now been set-up & tested with a 33 rpm & a 45 rpm record. Speeds are constant & accurate on both settings & the Pickup cartridge sounds really good when connected to an amp**** Vintage 1950s Sugden BD1 turntable kit with a Sugden SAU2 tonearm / headshell with a Shure M75ED-2 cartridge. The tonearm 5 point connect wire gives 2 x standard audio connectors output. . 1 spare headshell is also present, as is the original tonearm rest & A4 instruction/spec sheet on this SAU2 tonearm.The turntable has a brand new capsule of Farnells grease & a bottle of thick oil to set this turntable up. I have improved it by the addition of a brand new drive belt & have serviced the motor & made a new suspension harness from vulcanised India rubber, as was there originally rather than a modern nitrile rubber sheet web assembly, to keep to the spirit of things. A spare length of this India rubber is also included with the turntable / tonearm.the motor runs smoothly on both pulley wheel stages & the flip-up corner mounted drive cover is un-split on the hinged area. The black motor board paintwork is around 99%+ present & shows little signs of any scuffing. Not bad for over 75 years old. The motor / turntable also has ALL of its original paperwork including a full size template to fix to a wooden deck.The turntable is heavily cast in Aluminium & the turntable mat is flexible & neither cracked nor perished. Generally speaking a real sleeper, ready to be set up again by someone who would appreciate this well conceived audio classic do-it-yourself record player. Thanks for looking.

This was my main loving room turntable for over 10 years but I've recently switched to a Thorens TD 165 so letting it go. I replaced the motor suspension and drive belt a few years ago though it may be time to replace the latter again. Includes a nice vintage Shure M44MB cart and genuine Shure stylus with plenty of life left. There is a rack at the corner of the lid which can't really be seen if put at the back, otherwise all great condition. Includes phono connector for the SAU-2 tonearm (with ground lead).

This will require new webbing for the motor, a drive belt and a phono connector for the SAU-2 tonearm. I had kept this unit for spares but am now selli gmy BD2 (see other listing) sono lo ger need it. No dustcover.

Please study the picture. Parts are untested but I believe should be functional.

All parts of the Service kit are individually hand-made by myself on receipt of order, then fitted and rigorously tested for performance before shipping to you. This is a Hand-made MATCHED Service Kit designed to work together for Superb Performance. SUSPENSION WEBThe Suspension Web achieves: 1. Superior Performance to any other method of suspending your motor. 2. Natural New Rubber selected for its elasticity and ability to be extremely long lasting. 3. Excellent isolation of the motor, preventing its vibrations from reaching the platter and tonearm. GOLD CLASS DRIVE BELT Williams-Sonics Gold Class Neoprene drive belt is designed and matched with the web to give superb performance.MOTOR TENSION BANDS This essential replacement Service Kit comes with quality hand-made natural rubber bands of the same material to counter the pull of the belt and keep the pulley level.

Contact me if you have any questions, I aim to provide a prompt response. It is coincidental in this period of crisis that the barriers being employed for health reasons are ones that I already use to protect myself in my workshop and have been using for the past two years. The materials I use have always been initially cleaned with isopropanol alcohol before and at various stages of my work with them. I wear a very effective industrial rubber face mask because I do not want to ingest fine rubber particles. Also I wear eye protection against any materials and machine parts that can fly towards my face. Now I wear nitrile gloves for all the processes including packing. All reseal-able plastic bags are wiped over with isopropanol. Kind regards,williams-sonics
