Jelco Easy VTA on the Fly

This looks kinda intriguing:

I have a couple of Jelco arms that this will work on.  Wish it had it's own base for the micrometer to raise and lower off of, but if the arm base and/or the armboard is large enough it should work okay...

Just got an email stating the EASYVTA will begin shipping tomorrow!

SWEET! Jelco makes some frickin’ excellent arms for the money. To do better, you usually need to spend way more money.

Or just buy Victor UA-7045 for with VTA on the fly for less money than Jelco. Victor UA-7045 is an excellent arm for ridiculous low price today! in the 70s it was the arm for Victor’s best turntable (TT-101). Long version is UA-7082. The Jelco or has no monopoly on beautifully made tonearms for reasonable price. Victor is top-notch, but the price is lower than Jelco. I have owned two samples, really amazing tonearm. It has optional counterweight for MC, for MM wihtout additional counterweight this arm is a killer, stunning performer and needs NO modifications!

I owned a couple of JVC Victor arms back in the day, (late 70’s-early 80’s). Biggest pile of junk I’ve ever owned.

I doubt that I would ever travel down that road again...

Couple of JVC junk tonearms?
I'm talking about the top of the line UA-7045 and 7082 in today's system, not in your system in 1981 

I'm not alone with the statement that 7045 is a great tonearm, you can look at the design of this arm first and then compare it to your adorable Jelco where even VTA on the fly is a problem as i can see.

You can also do that with Victor cartridges MM or MC or Victor turntables like the TT81 or coreless TT-101. Then you can think about JVC Victor or Victor Laboratory as the biggest manufacturer of High-End equipment in the world back in the days. Everything they made is oustanding when it comes to the top models. 

So i don't know what you mean by "junk" and what is your standard of quality - Jelco ? Jelco is a joke compared to Victor Laboratory.
