Until I got one! My first BeoGram!!!

A pristine, teak 1202. Not only is it fully working and 100% complete, but it has an SP12 cartridge! Very exciting.

Only two hiccups - the arm drops just outside the record. Testing revealed bad cables but those will be replaced in short order.

Thanks Søren. Yes I'm very VERY happy with it - a dream come true.

I can't wait to sit down and fine tune it once I get some spare time.

The BeoVirus is acting up again, seeing this nice looking BG, I came to think of my BM 901, they will go so nice together, but then I'm forced to find a pair of P 30s and my long wished reel to reel, will it ever end, I'm lost.
