Information about this model according to wikipedia:

SL-1200MK5 was released on 1 November 2000, this has a silver finish like the MK2, increased range of anti-skate settings from 0–3 grams-force (0–30 mN) to 0–6 grams-force (0–60 mN). Height adjustment can be set between 0 and 6mm. It carries over many of the improved upon features of the MK3D like the lack of 0 crossing quartz lock for better pitch control & the added spare cartridge holder. MK5 models have a removable lid as opposed to the MK2 and MK3 removable hinged lid. The MK5 is the last 1200 model to retain an analog pitch control.
