Description: Extremely rare early Ortofon S-shaped tonearm made espescially for the B&o S 505 LP record deck with changer mechanism. Hence the arm has a built in lift mechanism that can be activated from below. See photos. Factory fitted with an Ortofon A type mono MC red dot cartridge in A bakelite shell. Fixed counterweight. Very good condition. Nice and clean. Only minor signs of use. Probably made i 1952. Same construction as the A 212 but with an s-shaped armtube and different counterweight. Only VERY few units made. I have never seen one like it. A true collectors item. I price it at 2200$ but feel free to make me offers. You wil NEVER find one like it. Ebay will automatically tell you freight will be 91$.

Not many transporters offer full insurance on electronic items unlessVERYexpensive freight costs. I pack items safely in sturdy boxes -BUTall goods are handled in automatic sorting machines which can be very tough on the packets so if any damage occurs to things inside the unit (i.e. tubes or other things that might come loose due to the item beeing molested by the sorting machines or improper handling) I willnotbe held responsible. ANDplease accept that vintage HiFi gear can be very sensitive and that there are risks involved in buying them. IFyou encounterANYproblems with damaged goods - STOPunpacking immediately, take photosANDcontact the company who brought the parcel to you. File a claim to them. Without a filed claim with a copy mailed to me I am not able to help with insurance refunds for damaged goods. In EU I normally use GLS who offers supplementary insurance of the goods. Please let me know in advance if you prefer that solution. Only a small amount extra to pay.
