The SME 3012-R 12-inch Vintage Hi-Fi Turntable Tonearm - Made In The UK

The SME 3012-R is a 12-inch tonearm manufactured by SME (Scale Model Equipment Co.) in the UK. It is part of the 3000 Series tonearms and is designed for use with turntables requiring a separate tonearm assembly.

The arm features a detachable headshell system, allowing compatibility with a wide range of phono cartridges. It is constructed as a standalone tonearm unit for installation into suitable plinths and turntable systems.

The 3012-R represents a later version of the 3000 Series, produced during the late 1970s through the 1980s, and is configured as a 12-inch arm for use in analog playback setups.


Condition:

  • This is a used unit.

  • Physically this unit is in good condition for its age. It shows some sign of light wear from use and age like some light surface oxidisation. Overall it is still a nice piece.

  • This sale includes a SME wiring loom. This also shows some general signs of age, but nothing major. Please see photos.

  • This tone arm has been tested and is working very well!

  • The 3012-R is definitely for people who are experienced with turntables and setting up tone arms. This is because this unit is delicate and require fine precision to set up. We will not be able to remotely help with set up or installation. So please ensure you are confident before purchase or have a technician who can install it for you. (If you are able to visit our store in West Gosford, NSW we could help with set up)

Don’t waste your money or time!
Color: White, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
Don’t waste your money. The instructions make no sense and the metal poles are either sized wrong for the product or screw holes are incorrectly placed, but no two poles matched in size and placement making it impossible to put this together without the panels being warped. No matter how I tried to switch the poles to see if I had them wrong, they always turned out warped and incorrectly fit. I finally gave up and threw everything out - I wasted $50 on this junk and because I didn’t try to put it together immediately after I bought it, it is way too late for a refund. Lesson learned!

Sturdiness
Color: Black, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
Not so sturdy. It worked well for its intended job, but, it has to be secured to the floor for long term use.

Wobbly but Usable
Color: Grey, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
A bit wobbly, but good enough for the price when you need a solid background for remote work calls.

Nice and easy to assemble
Color: Black, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
I absolutely love this 4-panel room divider! It was super easy to assemble — I had it set up in just a few minutes. The material isn’t too see-through, which gives just the right amount of privacy while still letting some light through. It does exactly what I needed it to do and looks so clean and sleek in my space. Perfect balance of style and function — highly recommend!
