SME 3012 Series II Vintage High Quality HIFI Audiophile Turntable Tonearm
The SME 3012 was first introduced in the late 50's.
The Series II was released in the early 70's and is an updated version of the original 3012. Rather than a steel arm tube, It was designed with a polished, bright-anodised aluminium arm tube.
Meticulously designed and constructed with high-quality materials, these arms offer exceptional mechanical strength with minimal inertia and friction. Ideal for both professional and domestic use. Technically sound and visually pleasing, the SME 3012 is a valuable addition to your collection.
These tonearms are very similar to the SME 3009 series II, but longer.
This sale is for a 3012 Series II with original weights and cables.
