Technics Sl1100 First run for Panasonic very rare!!!

Here is a rare Panasonic SL-1100 turntable bought new, this is the first SL-1100 made vintage 1971. The are nicks on one side from the dustcover moving around, as is the dustcover nicks themselves. I believe the brand name Technics was not used until 1973. It has a very high end Shure V15 TYPE ll, which sounds fantastic. The base and dustcover are stamped Panasonic, again not seen to often. Underneath the platter is my original tube of motor lube, still use it. This will also come with a rare original Panasonic owners manual that in itself is again a rare item. I have used it many times over the years, just don’t use anymore. I am rating this as a 6 out of 10, due to the scratches on the dustcover and right front of the platter.
