Wooden turntable wanted

[Smokejumper]

I want a turntable in wood.
What wood you ask?
I have an open mind.
Must be able to play 33's and 45's.

May be just a wood (walnut) effect finish, but have a look at the Pro-Ject T2 or its 'Super Phono' version.

Plenty of wood plinth turntables available, however they don't tend to be cheap.
Cheap versions tend to be veneer covered MDF.
Even wooden tonearms.... 🙂

A nice bit of veneer there....
Very nice deck.
I need to correct my statement that cheap ones tend to be veneer covered MDF... 🙂

But they're not wood..... 🙂
How about Linn LP12 with Afromosia plinth...
I think we might have frightened the OP away.

Why, aesthetics or sound?
How much do you want to spend?
New or vintage?

Start there then the rest will become clear.
