Clearly an oddball turntable. Dual 1229 question.

I like Dual, owned a couple in the 70s. Can you provide a pic?

Maybe this Twitter link will work?

I sold Dual turntables in the early 70’s.  I believe they were made by United Audio in the Black Forest of Germany.  We did have a functioning display model that you could see the inside mechanism.   I remember selling it when we discontinued the line. I have no idea on cost or if it is even the same model you have.   It’s too long ago. I didn’t particularly like them, the plinths were noisy as hell. 

Thanks for the info. I have a dual 1264 also that I use. I was just more curious about anything cuz it looked like it was a one-off. My brother who actually is a audio file is taught me a little bit kind of hinted at the fact that that could be the case a display model. Thanks again!

Dual is cool, they usually need a lot of work. More mechanical stuff. Keep an eye out for empire!
