Up for sale, my Koetsu tonearm, the earlier Mk1. It is in very good condition, immaculate appearance, and been gone through and checked: the wiring is original along with headshell and cartridge leads. The old wiring connections were resoldered at the lower connector with Cardas silver. Lift works well. Arm is shiny, with no corrosion or noticeable tool marks. There is no provision for anti-skate, by design. Arm looks and operates as original. I only used it with MM cartridges and it performed fantastically. There is a provision for silicon damping fluid that can be added through the top but I never used that.
The arm has only the heavy counterweight so it will work best with heavy carts, but if you use lightweight carts, weight can added to the headshell - I used a .8 gram weight (included.) You can set it up your way. Uses a 5 pin cable - you'll want to put a good one on it.
