Does anyone know the RPM's for the turn table motor?

Thanks

That's an impossible question to answer ! Most brands are marked on the ID plate--which brand do you have ? Depends on the brand of the motor--they were all marked differently, but somehow, run the TT at 45 rpm ? Ron Rich

I have only Bodine: 1600 RPM & Nidec which are slightly slower @ around 1550RPM. As designed the Seeburg mech runs fast at approx 46-47 RPM.

Although I am sensitive to pitch the Seeburg is 'acceptable". The Rowe 1100 series are bizarrely fast and must have the shaft -carefully- ground down a bit.

The "solution" that the Gepettos on Tenth Ave used was to stretch the spring that holds the puck against the motor shaft and turntable so as to allow it to slip. Needless to say this caused odd pitch variations.
