VPI Help

If it has a dustcover, a clear plastic tonearm with the vacuum auto antiskate and screw down clamp, you have a 16.5
A bit noisy and you'll need a really good phono stage, but it's a direct drive, so no need to replace belts.

Also you can just call them and from the serial number plate they can sell you and you can describe what the arm looks like so you can know if it has a regular arm or a "signature" one with better wiring.Many of them have plate that say's Aries,Aries II Aries scout.Just call VPI and you'll know what you have.

does it have a platter, plinth, spindle, and tonearm? then it's definitely a vpi. but, seriously, pics...

Can you post a pic?

I may help, but certainly VPI would be your "go to" choice.
