Believe it or not it's not as bad as their vertical turntable. Surely people will just buy this as an ornament or collectors item. Honestly I wish Project would stop these gimmicks and concentrate on producing quality products which they do beyond a certain price level.

Perfect for somebody who wants to relive their 1960’s youth. I can see the attraction but don’t think I’ll be buying one.

Fretless named it, it's pure kitsch. Pro-Ject have a licensing deal with Universal Music Group / The Beatles and it's one of a series of limited runs. My favourite is this one...

...the 2Xperience SB Sgt. Pepper Limited Edition made in a run of 1,000.

Did you spot the name of cart on the Yellow Submarine by the way?
Especially for this edition Ortofon have created a yellow Concorde cartridge, called Sonar.
You do need sonar on a submarine I suppose. :grin:
