Anybody heard of Girard turntables?


My dad has one, it actually has a receiver built into it as well. He's had it for at least 40 years......and, he's no longer using it.

Should I keep it or chuck it? I really don't know much about analog.

thanks.

Many of the Garrards are nothing to write home about but they did build a couple of tables which have a bit of a reputation. If you can find one of these sitting around in an attic or basement somewhere for $30 or $40 you'll probably have a pretty decent table:
