Can I control the turntable motor speed of my Empire 598 electronically?

It's a synchronous motor locked on to the mains frequency so the only way to change it is to alter the mains, change the pulley diameter, or the platter diameter. You can't do it easily electronically.

my Stanley #36 torpedo level is still spot on...
Yes, levels usually don't wear out or lose tolerance. Unless they get damaged or broken. :)

Papst motor. You can get a controller for it on eBay. It’s based on a solid-state derivative of the Fairchild 412-ED. The seller (no idea who they are, no connection to them) has one with an octal plug for Fairchilds and a hardwired version for other Papst motors.
