Technics SL-1200GAE with Ortofon Quintet - Free Shipping

Technics SL-1200GAE Limited Edition #227. Original owner, purchased new from authorized Technics dealer in the U.S. Excellent condition, played in smoke-free home. Includes original box, all accessories (see pics), owner's manual, GAE Limited Edition brochure and 57-page hardbound Technics book featuring the GAE and other new Technics products.

Also includes an Ortofon Quintet Black S low output moving coil cartridge (retail $995), which I also purchased from the Technics dealer, and an Ortofon LH-9000 headshell. I tried several cartridge combinations on the 1200GAE and the Ortofon Quintet Black with the LH-9000 was the best overall. Cartridge has about 150 hours playing time.

Free shipping within CONUS via FedEx unless buyer has a preferred method. Triple-boxing and insurance at my expense. No paypal fee for asking price, otherwise add 3%. Local pickup welcome.
