...with the usual conical's and ellipticals when VTA and SRA didn't matter nearly as much as later on. I was a kid when a neighbor showed me his.

I mounted a non-stock tonearm on my used The Table, one with adjustments so you could dial it in. I don't know what arm it came with stock. With an updating on tone-arms you have a wide selection on head shells and their wires etc.

It's a lot of work to dial it in, perhaps more than any other worthy table. Most turntables are. I guess it will depend on how far you want to take this. Although I find Basher's response very good, I'm an anti-skate guy.
