binalong,
I agree, Vintage Direct Drive. Many, not all of he JVC-Victor and Denon Plinths are special designs, some 70 mm thick, 7 layers (4 wood/3 compound), others are solid, it is good to know which type you get.
I like Real Wood Veneer, that Denon marble plinth is a cut above, some wood is actually vinyl photo of wood, wrapped on the plinth.
The Sony I found is Metal, not plastic.
Of course, if you like or not bothered by plastic, you can get vintage for less cost, or affordable new.
Vinyl Engine says your Pioneer PL50 is Belt Drive, correct?

Removable Arm Boards give future flexibility, and the large plinths with two removable arm boards are terrific if you get into Mono LP's as well as Stereo.
