The Best-Looking Garrard?

I love the looks of my Zero 100:

It's the nicest one I've seen

Thanks for the compliment!
It sounds very, very good, as well. Listening to it now.

Old thread, I see, but what the heck?

Hammertone 301 has the most no-nonsense, "I mean business" appearance. 401 is stylishly modern without losing much industrial appeal. 4HF in its curved base has a lovely delicateness that would look right at home with overstuffed, antimacassar covered furniture in a 1950s parlor. And I have a distinct fondness for the look of my own 95B.

But 1964 was the year of my first Allied catalog. Of all the technological marvels contained in its pages, I likely spent the most idle daydreaming time gazing wistfully at the Lab 80's shining visage... Simply stunning in a Bond/Hefner way that a young boy could not resist, in spite of my Rek-O-Kut owning uncle's dismissal of "just another changer."

So perhaps I fell in love due to my impressionable age. But that later Zero arm always freaked me out a little...

Best,
Mike

Honestly, I still have a crush on the Z2000B

If I could find a real good one, I would like to have this in my collection ...

Similar to my 990b but with an s-shaped tonearm

You deserve it! It`s a great looking turntable.

I was really hoping to see more picts... especially of 301s and 401s. I voted for my own just because I'm a terrible person. 95B ... manly... the Tom Selleck of turntables...

Funny stuff there.
