Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL

There's no accounting for taste, mine included.  I actually like it, except for the big Fender logo.  It would look much cleaner without it.  Would I pay that much for it?  Not a chance.

If we're going to talk about ugly audio components, this won't crack the top 100.

I believe Rega went a similar route a few years back with less than impressive results.

Just another way for the TT company to make some extra bucks. :-)

The most expensive part of that table is the finish, aside from that it looks to be another cheap belt drive table.

Exactly; only a beginner can believe that there is technology and innovation in that turntable that can motivate the purchase; let it go and look forward.
