About the original
The ANABAS GP-N3 is a reissue of the Columbia GP-3, a Japanese suitcase-style portable record player originally sold in 1955. ANABAS audio (a brand of Omori Musen Denki, founded 1954) brought the design back in 2019 with a rebuilt two-speed motor, an Audio-Technica AT-3600L cartridge, built-in speaker, and optional AA battery power for around 150 hours of playback. The Supreme GP-N3S adds Bluetooth and printed logos on the case and slipmat; the base GP-N3R is the same chassis without the branding. It plays 33 and 45 RPM records and weighs about 1.3 kg.
