"The Scoutmaster took the best concepts of the Scout and stepped it up. More mass, more low end! It doubled up the chassis and added a steel center between. At the time it had the same platter as the Aries 3 which was a thicker acrylic platter using an inverted bearing. The Outbound motor was a 300 RPM 24 pole motor with IEC socket. The Scoutmaster was standard with a VPI JMW 9 arm but would have the option to upgrade to the Nordost Valhalla wire. The easiest way to tell if your Scoutmaster has a signature arm is to see what color the wire is connecting to your junction box. If it is multi-color than it was a standard JMW 9. If the color is silver than you have the JMW Signature arm" - VPI
