It's an automatic belt drive unit. I've just been looking at new turntables on line and think I'll get a new manual direct drive. Old mister BIC may take a trip to the Goodwill, maybe somebody will want it! It has a good cartridge, Shure V15 Type 3, but it is also about 40 years old. I just got my Christmas bonus Friday and I've been thinking of buying a new guitar. Maybe I'll get both, I've been good this year!
