JVC JL-B44 Turntable Direct Drive Rare MIJ Vintage Japan

This is the very hard to find JVC branded turntable that rarely come up for sale and is made for US power. This has recently been serviced and calibrated and everything functions as it should with the exception of the speed strobe light apparatus, which is missing. The speed button and adjustments work perfectly it is just the light fixture that does not, other than that it is in overall great condition. All the controls function just how they are supposed to.
