“After two years of work, blood, sweat, and tears our collaboration with Shinola has come to light,” said Mat Weisfeld, CEO of VPI Industries. “This has been a labor of love to create an easy to use high end product with the quality and performance of a VPI and with the style and dedication of a Shinola product. The shared value of both companies is love for an American Made product and opportunity for the American worker.”

The Shinola “Runwell” has the platter and motor of a VPI Classic, the tonearm and usability (internal phono) of a VPI Player, and is designed to provide the feel of a true American-made muscle car. It will be machined and wired in New Jersey, and assembled in Detroit, where Shinola is based. Retailing for USD $2,500, it is available in November.

Shinola has mentioned the development of a turntable earlier this year in a designer profile, Shinola has made an investment into entering the audio market as a primary developer, stating “All audio products beyond the table are being developed in-house, will be developed in-house, and will be manufactured in-house.”

VPI has just recently added new tables their range under their own brand with the VPI Titan and Prime Signature.

The Runwell is available for order at Shinola.
