raymonda:
These are custom built table that I made. Thank you for the complement. Great sound can look great, too!

relefunt:
I wonder if you may have considered giving the turntable a little lubrication. Sometimes it can turn quite nasty over time.

Good point. I will look into the lubrication idea.

Hopefully you haven't trashed this turntable. It could be one of a few things...

Spindle and other parts need hardened grease cleaned & regreased/oiled
Capacitors need replacing on the speed control board
etc

I'm not familiar with this model but those are the common issues with the PL-530, which I own.
