A FFSS arm and cart has just appeared on teh eBays here in appropriate vintage context (nothing to do with me, just linking as it's a nice looking example). I bet that's a damn fine deck assuming it's possible to service it to something close to as-new condition. No one ever mentions the Connoisseur idlers, but IIRC that one cost more than a 301 in it's day.
I had a few Connoisseur turntables like the one in the eBay advert when I dabbled in the vintage scene back in the late 1980s and 90s. The Connoisseur looks cool in the hammerite finish but is not quite in the performance league of the 301/401. Plus there is the source of replacement parts and spares that will be an issue.
