RCA Overhead for sale

Here's a working RCA overhead with cutting head $2,800. There's interesting history on this overhead that I would be happy to share privately.

I've mounted it on a variety of platters including Presto 6N (like the famous Sun Studios photo).

I've used this overhead for over a decade as an amateur with great results. I've cut lacquer disks and etched into poly disks. Unlike other lathes that pop up time to time, this one is in working condition. The cutter head (included) takes a 16ohm load. Video link below.

Fun Fact: The cutter head is from RCA recording and mastering studios in Toronto, Ontario. It operated under this name from 1954 until 1979, it housed two recording studios, Studio A and Studio B.
