I will try to clean the platter tomorrow thx for the suggestion.

I already cleaned all the black gunk on the capstan and it did't do anything. It still plays a perfect half step higher than it should???

Another remote possibility.  I have read somewhere that if the caps need replacing, that can mess with the speed.  I've not done it.

 

I will say that the speed issue is one reason I dont like tables with no speed adjustment.  I mean the chances that something will run perfectly unadjusted just seems like a pipe dream to me.  

 

I think my pl50 also runs a little fast.  but not enough to bother me, and I'm a musician.  your sounds like a bigger problem.
