Description: You are bidding on a completely restored and ready to use early 1957 Thorens TD-124 turntable. Serial number 6276 (number 5275 off the assembly line, ~10th month of production). 50 hours restoration time.

Operation: Carefully chosen updates net operational performance that is superior to the original design without compromising that incredible Thorens sound. This early design chassis is as close to perfection as I’ve seen. Check the photographs; feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Paint: The TD-124 was disassembled and taken down to its bare chassis. The chassis was then professional re-painted as shown in the photographs (paint baked on, clear coat applied). Name plate and bubble level were reinstalled afterward. The chassis was professionally painted in an auto body shop and clear coated. There is a scratch near the level bulb. The clear coat does have a few very minor bumps.

Replaced:

New bushings. New bearings. Heavy duty start capacitor. New strobe bulb

Updates:

Upgraded Idler wheel (stainless steel o-ring). Upgrade Custom Hi Torque motor. Upgrade Anti-static Repro Mat. Upgrade MKII Motor Suspension (Blue Elastomer Kit)

Includes:

Fully operational TD-124 turntable. New Rubber Decoupling Mushrooms. Original Adjustable Threaded Leveling Screws. Original TD-124 Platter. Original TD-124 Aluminum Platter Top. Clutch in excellent adjustment / working condition. The main platter has 6 small rubber pads. These are there to support the aluminum top/sub platter in the playing mode. That is when the aluminum top/sub platter is lowered by disconnecting the clutch from it. Excellent working condition.

Not included:

Tonearm. Tonearm Cable. Cartridge. Plinth. The TD-124 is currently in use with an Ikeda IT-407 CR1 tonearm and Koetsu Blue cartridge (not included in sale). I am happy to take additional photographs and answer questions.
