For sale is this immaculate example of the classic Thorens TD 125 MK 11 turntable in a professionally made custom plinth finished in stunning Macassar Ebony.

The plinth was made using birch ply topped off with a beautiful veneer by the highly regarded craftsman Russ Collinson at a cost of around £800.

Everything works perfectly and sound quality really is top notch. It comes with manufacturers manual , knurled adjustable brass spikes and spike cups , spare belt, custom made acrylic lift off cover,  spare springs and 2 spare arm boards as shown in the pics.

Sorry, no manufacturers box so this is strictly for collection only from post code area LE15.

Selling for £400 which bearing in mind the cost of the plinth alone is something of a bargain.

A lovely turntable and a very fair price. 

Jon knows his stuff. Having both met (twice whilst visiting and exhibiting at Scalford) and bought from him before I can vouch that you won’t find a lovelier or more straightforward guy to deal with. 

Sorry Jon to embarrass you... not  ;-)

Solid bit of kit the TD125  I have a SME 3009 on mine a classic combo that never fails to impress. 

I had the new Springsteen LP "Western Stars" arrive the weekend its been pretty hot in the house but I think I might just fire up the valve amps make myself a G&T chill out and have a first listen.

This is a ridiculous bargain  - can also vouch for Jon as a completely trustworthy seller - I can't justify (domestically) a third turntable, or I would have this in the blink of an eye..

Don’t worry, I’m working on it!! Sold my 125 18 months ago and regret it still. This looks a whole lot better, but I only have an RB250 to go on it.  I had a Jelco 750 E on my previous one, Will the 250 be ok? I have a Hana SL which I’ve just won in a competition, so I know that’ll be good.  :D

Any advice would be appreciated.. I’m almost ready to pull the trigger.

It looks fantastic (= no grief from the boss), it's an excellent price (= you won't lose anything if you don't get on with it = no grief from the boss), I use Hana SL's on 2 Rega derivative arms and they work extremely well (= no worry about arm matching).

That just about sorts it, I think. Right then, away you go :D

Pretty sure that this was mine and I had the plinth made to my specification by Russ Collinson.
