The Lenco P77 is a rare beast, and one of the most unique vintage tonearm you are likely to come across. We have had one in our system here for the last 4 years, and it gets regular use on the Thorens TD-124. As a high mass arm it is ideally suited to low compliance cartridges, and is a great match for the Denon DL-103.
As most folks will never have seen one of these arms up close, we thought we would put together a short video showing the major features of the arm, and it main component parts.
hey there!
I happened to come across one in excellent state.
Do you if they are worth something these days?
Hello,
could you please tell me something about the modified shell of this p 77?
Best regards, Rosario
It is a replacement head shell, marketed by e.g. Svalander of Sweden:

There is some debate as to the perfect fit of this, but as the originals are getting ever more expensive … !

Oops the head shell here looks like a hand-made one off, not the Tonar product!!
No demo of the cuing function?
Does the arm rest function as the cue lift?
Thanks for the video, interesting and seemingly rare arm.
Take care
