Thanks, Gary-- I appreciate the encouragement!
The asbestos pieces are indeed covered with a metallic-looking reflective surface. If a coat or two of lacquer is an effective solution, that makes me feel much better about having them there.
I'm still a bit disappointed to find out that this is actually a **mono** unit-- and that appears to include the turntable as well, since there are only three wires coming off of the cartridge. Ah well-- can't have everything, I suppose. At least I paid a lot less for it than the original owner!
And you're right, it should sound great once everything is back up and running!
