Thank you all. Early Well Tempered makes sense. The guy who has it now inherited it from his current wife's deceased husband (or something like that) and is not an audiophile. I'm sure he doesn't recognize the cartridge is misaligned. Besides the Spicas which I already picked up, he has this...

Picked up a pair of Spica TC-50s from a local and he had this turntable that he wanted to sell as well. He said there were no labels and I didn't want to pull it off his shelf to figure out. Any ideas what table and tonearm this is?
