Presto Transcription TT on eBay

[Angus McCarthy]

16" platter and mount points for 2 arms. Model "MRG16"? Could probably drive an overhead assembly once it's been brought up to snuff.

wow thats cool.
looks just like a 6N

Wouldn mind trying to get that guy...but god knows it will go crazy at the end and I will continue to collect 6N overheads with no turntable in sight!

Man, just go for it. Nothing says you have to get into a bidding war. 2 days left and still no opening bid @ $99.

[tragwag]

GO FOR IT!

[Angus McCarthy]

Less than an hour left - no bids.

MBL, if you want it, for God's sake do it now!

I tried...put in a bid of 109...that with the 58 dollar shipping is all I could afford at this particular moment especially since it wasn't an actual 6N...the hunt wiil continue, but quite honestly probably be given up on. Too hard to become an honest lathe troll...or at least way too expensive.

I think this is an 8D without the overhead mechanism

I'm not convinced. I'm willing to bet they may have used the same frame, but this is definitely tagged as a different model. Guessing it would have had one arm for Standard groove discs, and one for Microgroove.
