A Technics SL-10, the jacket-size full-automatic turntable released in 1979. Known for its quartz-controlled direct drive and linear tracking arm, it drew major attention at the time and remains a well-regarded classic. This unit has been tested and confirmed working, and has been fully serviced.

Condition:

Tested and confirmed working. Fully serviced.

Numerous small scratches are present throughout. There are notably large, visible scratches and dullness on the front and rear-top surfaces, along with a dent next to the power button. Please understand that this is a vintage item.

[Maintenance performed]

The rubber tracking belt in the linear tracking mechanism has been replaced with an equivalent part

Switches have been disassembled and cleaned

The lamp, originally a bulb prone to burning out, has been replaced with a warm-white LED matching the original color tone

Gears, pulleys, and the slide shaft have been cleaned with alcohol and re-greased

The rubber insulator feet have been replaced with equivalent-performance parts due to rubber degradation

The cartridge fitted is a Technics EPC-P80. The stylus tip shows little visible wear, but as it is a consumable part, its remaining lifespan cannot be guaranteed. (The stylus is included as a bonus item only and is not covered under any warranty or guarantee.)

*As this is a used item, please understand that minor dust or small imperfections may be present.

Secure & Professional Packaging for Safe Delivery

This turntable will be very carefully and securely packed to ensure maximum protection during international shipping.

We take the following extra precautions to prevent damage in transit:

The platter is securely fixed with tape to prevent movement.

The rubber mat and weight (and other accessories) are placed on top and completely secured with stretch wrap.

The tonearm is properly locked and immobilized.

The most fragile part, the dust cover, is protected by:

Wrapping the exterior with cardboard

Covering it with protective bubble wrap

The entire turntable is first wrapped and protected (single box stage).

After that:

The unit is placed inside a larger outer box

The surrounding space is filled generously with cushioning materials

It will be shipped in a double-boxed configuration for maximum shock protection

I understand how delicate audio equipment can be, and I pack every turntable with the same level of care I would expect as a buyer.

Buy with confidence.
