For sale is a SOTA STAR Series III Vacuum hold down turntable. This table
features an exotic highly figured ebony wood cabinet. The platter on the
table is red and was primarily made for the Japan market.

================================================== ============
SME IV ARM OR CARTRIDGE IS NOT INCLUDED WITH SALE OF THE SOTA
================================================== ============

I have only seen one other SOTA STAR like this. This SOTA is very cool and
beautiful in looks.

The arm board is the stepped aluminum type and is cut for SME tone arms. The
arm board will fit SME Series IV, IV-VI, V, M-2, and SME 3009. It is likely
that this arm board will also work with older Graham arms with the SME
mount.

The SOTA Groove Damper Mat and the beveled SOTA Reflex clamp are included in
the sale. I have the original boxes and the owner's manual. The hold down
screws are installed to protect the bearing from damage during shipping.

Cosmetically it is excellent but there are very tiny hairline cracks on
three corners of the dust cover that cannot be seen with the cover down.
There is slight scuffing of the dust cover on the side of the motor cover.
Not noticeable with the dust cover down but I must note it. Other than that
the dust cover is very clean and in excellent condition. See pictures for
details.

This is a beautiful looking and sounding table. I will include a set of SOTA
tiptoes that are of the two piece type used with the SOTA Millennia with the
table along with three protection disks.

The stock rubber feet are included also so that it can be shipped and bolted
down in the original SOTA packing box so it is properly packed for shipping.

Original packing box, vacuum hoses, power supply-air pump and SOTA strobe
disk are included along with the owners manual and additional lead shot to
balance the table with the arm of your choice.

This is a Series III SOTA STAR. Easy to set up and stays setup. Breaks the
laws of physics due to it hanging suspension design.

This is analog candy for your eyes and ears.
