WTF = Which Turntable Friday

Premise: There are four items pictured below and you may pick one for free. Please tell us why you made the selection you did. Inquiring minds want to know.

After several weeks of high-end choices I took things down quite a few notches last week. Some folks did not seem happy with the choices and will likely be even less happy this week.

I thought it was high time a little levity was injected into WTF. A chance for us to take ourselves a bit less seriously.

I hope you didn’t have your hopes set on choosing between state-of-the-art tables again, because I don’t think I’ve offered any this week. But opinions do vary.

Scroll down to see your choices...

VW Bus Record Player

Car 45 Player

KISS Record Player

Lego Record Player

Since I already have a way to play music in the car and am not a KISS fan, I’ll pass on those. The Lego table is way cool (see link below), but I’ll go with the VW bus. I’ve got a big bin full of flea market LPs that I don’t care about and think it would be cool when having friends over (all of whom expect to hear quality sound when at my house) to plop a record on the coffee table between the chips and the dip, put the VW on the record and watch it go round. A great conversation starter and no doubt fun to watch. Maybe I could even mod it... better tires for superior tracking. LOL.

So, what’s your pleasure this week and what is the rationale for your selection?

Have a great weekend.

Dean.

reelsmith's axiom: Its going to be used equipment when I sell it, so it may as well be used equipment when I buy it.
