  1. The simple takeaway from the post above 
    Looks to me as cheating 

     

    The win at all cost is a flawed concept 

    If one team can’t win on their merit then “try again and again “ until you are at that level to do so

    ...and I have special glasses for Riesling!   Hi everyone, just stopping by before heading into work for a couple days.  I will try to get some vinyl listening in soon.  Looks like all is under good control around here ;) 🍷.


    I have some special Riesling glasses as well 

    They are over 40 years old and I received them from a German wine merchant that introduced me to Riesling 

     

    I will take a photo of them in the morning

  3. I am testing to compare my pressing with @AndreG. 

     

    In my 1975 UK first press I can’t hear what you have described 

    The only section that I may find a little flutter in the lower register of the flute section of that track, but that’s what a flute does when one tries to go deep into the lower register 

     

    Artist - Steve Hackett 

    Title - Voyage Of The Acolyte 

     

    Album ID - https://www.discogs.com/release/1433178-Steve-Hackett-Voyage-Of-The-Acolyte

  4. I like the harmonica in this song 

    And you may notice that on certain harmonica sections the sound is unique - Now my memory on this is because the harmonica was tweaked internally to give it that unique tone

     

    Enjoy

    I might just try the plumbers rope, I have some I could experiment with


    It’s an old method that has gone out of favour but plumbers hemp rope threads are finer than human hair and thats why I thought it was ideal or at the very least worth the experiment

    Are you able to re tap the thread on the cone screws and insert to rejuvenate them 

     

    I know of the carbon trick and I have also used ground steel scale and that also works 

     

    If I can make a suggestion on another method even if it’s an experiment 

    Try plumbers hemp rope 

    Or non dry putty one that never hardens

    I have not worked out yet is the felt washer that goes around the arm post on the top of the T frame. It is an oil keeper felt prevents oil from migrating out of the shaft and holds the oil for the shaft to remain lubricated.


     

    My Garrard 401 has a felt oil ring washer and it’s still good as new 

    It is original fitted 1965/1966

    I will post an occasional picture as I go along if anyone is interested.

    The Goal, restore to original factory condition, and original specifications mechanically. Then enjoy my first ever high end piece of gear.

    ........

     

    oh the work ahead....


    That would be great and will be looking forward to see updates 

    You could also fit a different arm if you can’t restore it
