The VPI Super Scoutmaster Signature turntable adds the HR-X Mini feet to the standard SSM, and also adds the SDS turntable drive system. Note!! I am not including the periphery ring clamp or any cartridge-the cartridge included in the photos is solely for appearance in the photos, and is NOT included! Basically, this is a relatively rare, "super" VPI turntable in a compact form factor. VPI took the standard Scoutmaster and dramatically upgraded it by adding the outstanding drive system (flywheel and dual motors) from the HRX and beefing up the chassis. Lastly, they added the SDS drive system to ensure superb speed stability even further. And yet, the whole thing will fit on a standard shelf. A remarkable performer.

I am the second owner, a friend of mine was the first, hence I'm quite well cognizant of it's provenance. Condition is excellent, I have just installed all brand new belts, and it has always been used in a smoke-free environment, protected by a Gingko dust cover (which I have no box for, and thus, alas, am not offering unless you're OK with me fashioning some kind of box-at an additional price). Note that a cartridge or the original periphery ring clamp (which I did not like) are not included-but are certainly available from VPI if so desired. There are three boxes total, so shipping is considerable-and this thing is heavy! At the stated price I will cover said shipping and paypal fees, so please don't ask for some lowball pricing-not interested! I am a long-time Audiogoner, going back to paper newsletter days, and a verified paypal member. Shipping to the lower 48/FedEx included only at stated price. Boxes are original (important for safe shipping) and manual is also included. Condition is outstanding, listed as an "8" due to second ownership and greater than 3 year age.
