This has the non-segmented counter-weight, and the 25mm arm pillar (vs 20mm on earlier version). This makes it the later version, generally referred to as the "Mk2".You'll be hard pressed to find this classic arm in such beautiful condition. Barely a mark on it. No scratches, no gouges, no discolorations, no nicotine contamination. Headshell has usual (light) marks from cartridge screws, but the pillar does not have the typical gouges caused by over-zealous tightening of VTA set screw. Operationally, the arm is perfect. It's been in constant use on my Townshend Rock 3 table for past 4 years in a smoke / child / pet free home. Has worked great with all the cartridges I've rotated through (Dynavector, Clearaudio, SAE, Music Maker). Bearings are smooth and free with no play, catching or sticking. Lift and everything else works exactly as it should. No continuity breaks in wires from cartridge clips to RCA connectors. All is included, exactly as in photos: tonearm, counterweight, tonearm rest, mounting collar, DIN-to-RCA cable, all fixing hardware and wrenches. Even the tiny lil 1.3mm hex wrench (for DIN lock screw) which almost always gets lost, and is hard to replace. (I know because arm came to me with it missing, and I had to buy a hard-to-locate set of tiny hexes). Black arm board is NOT included. Original box is included, but does not have the cut-out foam insert. Perfect operational condition of this arm is guaranteed, as are the cosmetics accurately reflected in photos taken today in natural light. Arm will be carefully packed and double boxed with lots of padding for extra-safe transit. Asking $750 obo. Buyer pays insured shipping plus 3% PayPal (if friends / family not used). If local to zip 11561, feel free to pickup for cash. Thanks for looking.... ~John
