Wanted: Decca C4E any condition


I’m getting the itch to try a Decca C4E cartridge. I’m hoping someone here might have one in non-working condition they’d be willing to part with reasonably so I can send it back to Jolly Old for refurbishment. Of course a freshly rebuilt C4E would be welcome as well! As would a London Jubilee.


Thanks!

Hi

John is due to retire in October! Best be quick if you want him to refurbish it.

Oh boy I didn't know that!  Surely there is a succession plan?  Presumably it’s the same skill to build a new Reference or Jubilee as to rebuild a C4E.

I just ordered the last London Reference cartridge.  I’d still like a C4E or two to have John refurb before he retires.
