Marantz P-mount made by Technics

I was cruising around that auction site and found a Marantz TT 432. The picture shows this is a Technics SL-BD22 or 27. Interesting.

The tonearm and control placement are a dead giveaway.

That looks like a SL-BD20 or a SL-BD27. The SL-BD22 has a strobe light, strobe markings on the side of the platter, and a pitch control.

Yes, also Hitachi sold the same TTs under its name.
The only thing different on the Marantz is a strange buildup in the left back corner. what is it?

Ah, forget it. It's on the Technics too. Doh.
