Empire Troubadour 498 Turntable - Parts Only

Description: This listing includes everything you see in the pictures. It's in good vintage condition, but with a few scrapes and bumps from use over time. I've had a few of these Empire tables and I've always sought out the silver finish because it holds up better over time. Never had much luck with the gold finish. Please examine the pictures closely. What you see is what you'll get. Technically this unit is working and it has stable speed, but something is definitely wrong with the motor. It’s loud and does not sound right. Fixing it is beyond my pay grade which is why I'm selling it "for parts not working." All that being said, I did a good amount of work to it recently including replacing worn parts with the following: New Esoteric Belt ($45)New Lord Rubber Grommets ($25)New Light ($10)New Cart Sled ($40)I’m including a second new belt that I purchased from Bob’s Vintage Electronics for $22. I’m also going to include a custom-made protractor for this particular turntable made by Tracking Wizard. Here's a link to a video of it running with an M3D cartridge (M3D cartridge not included with this sale): https://youtu.be/7ot9XsfMhwM?feature=shared Thank you for looking and please let me know if you have any questions.
