1974 ¥69,800 Direct Drive Automatic Reportedly the first domestic model. It still performs all of its functions, including auto-return, auto-cut, and repeat. It starts rotating when the cartridge is lifted and stops when placed down; manual playback is also possible. For confirmation, a 270C cartridge with an elliptical stylus is installed. Sound is produced from both left and right channels. Since it is not quartz-locked, even if the stroboscope slightly drifts, it maintains a rotation speed that is not audibly problematic. There are some scratches and discoloration that are not fully captured in the photos, but the main unit is generally as shown in the images. The dust cover is easily removable and has many fine scratches. There are no cracks or breaks. Sound is produced when connected to a phono equalizer, amplifier, and speakers.
