Paul, that looks like a great rig (arm is the same as mine!), but that cart doesn't look like a Zephyr. What is it?

It's a Zephyr photographed from a distance in poor lighting with an iPhone!

AMENDED: Oh my gosh! You are right! I took a pic and then tried to access Instagram and then access Flick'r and it's an old picture with my Grado HUMMMMMM cartridge! Sorry,

Strange as it may sound, I've always thought the VPI Scout was on heck of a sexy table.

Is that a tonearm or is that a construction crane? (that's a joke, mild NY humor)

Well, it's got a VPI motor, bearing and platter ... does it count?

This was made for me by Larry at Hollywood Sound before the Scout was available for sale, because at that time I needed something smaller than an Aries or HW19. I added the Moerch DP6 arm later.

Cannot get her to track right towards the last 2 tracks. Thinking of using a linear tone arm

What tracks are you talking about that it can't track? Don't be so fast to blame the JMW arm....

Nice photos...
