Probably the Scout...it has the HRX mini feet, the platter with the notch around so you can add the periphery ring later, same motor as on the big VPI tables, and the 10.5 arm tube.
You need to get a cart for it though.

Wilco “A.M.” 1995 Sire Records, 2017 reissue in red vinyl.
“Casino Queen” has got to be one of my favorite Wilco tracks. I spent a month there one night.
Marco, thanks again for the beautiful granite piece. Looks great and everything plays noticeably better
ETA:
Sides 3 and 4 have some unreleased tracks, including an Uncle Tupelo track, “When You Find Trouble”.

On another note can anyone help me with figuring out older pressings when they were released I'm new to this and I was curious which year this one was released
Thanks again

Where did you guys find those lights for the tables? Since I still haven’t convinced my wife to let me put out a rack system yet I wouldn’t mind a light since it’s sitting in my entertainment center.
Also... Marco, played around on a VPI board of sorts and most say that the Hana EH would be a crap shoot on the nomad (v1) due to no VTA. They say it lines up with the phono well, but no way to know if it will work w/o the VTA.
Mat W, suggested I just add the ortofon black to the red’s body. Ortofon says don’t do it b/c the bodies are different materials and won’t sound the same. Mat W said they did it and yes it isn’t the same as a true black, but it is a massive improvement over the red. My question is do I want to go with the shibata stylus? Should I just pop a blue (most suggest on that board is a massive jump in itself from the red) or maybe just drop a bronze in it instead of moving to the shibata of the black?
I’ve read the black can be really really revealing almost to a fault? Many say the bronze is the sweet spot...
Thoughts?
