I only have one record player, a Bush SRP41 and it's sold and that has a BSR deck as yet unmentionned, a Monarch UA15 Superslim 4 speed autochanger in black. It's the same as the metallic blue UA15 deck in the earlier Bush SRP31C/D but around 1" lower to fit in the sleeker SRP41 so the spindle will only accomodate six records rather than ten.
The platter doesn't slow down at the end of a record now, I found the problem, the screw and washer upon which the operating plate slides had come loose so the plate was moving over it at an angle. It's tightened up now with a bit more grease on the plate and it works perfectly.
There's only a very light coat of black paint on this deck, BSR should have sprayed a bit more on it .....
