For sale Presto 8DG, I bought this a few months ago but unfortunately it hasnt worked out for me, A combination of things have lead me consider selling it,

Unfortunately it wasnt quite what the seller promised and basically was shipped to me in a quite unfinished state and needs a little TLC to get it to its full potential.

I had a mate of mine look at it and he confirmed the potential of it and we actually got some nice test cuts with some minor adjustments. With a little bit more work it will be up to full speed, but unfortunately I have neither the ability or patience to do this after 3 months of trying and getting on everybody's nerves on various forums asking questions!

A Technics SP10 mounted under the lathe drives the turntable. Ive been advised this should probably be swapped out for a proper motor. There is a stylus heat function plus a variable pitch control and automated lead in, track mark and finish buttons and an auto stop mechanism fitted to stop it just before the label. It comes with a Presto 1D mono head which was apparently fully serviced and rewound by a guy on this forum, a basic block cutting amp and some other accessories,

Will ship worldwide and it will be professionally packed up for international transit, Please PM me for more info, photos and videos
