Look for a Newcombe or ATC portable school machine.Good and durable.And
not a bad performer if it has a good stylus.

Phillip,

thanks. Just looking for a record player for pleasure listening,
hopefully a dealer in the bay area of S.F.

Hey Rod,
Are they looking for "archival quality" or just something for pleasure.
 If 
they're looking for archival quality, they'll have to open their pocket

books.  But if they just want anything that plays all three speeds,
there're 
are hundreds of thousands of older units that can be retrofitted with a

quality cartridge and offer decent performance.
