I am thinking of buying my first large format enlarger, it comes with the following, would that be enough to get me going?

This is a very reluctant sale,but due to family circumstances I have to let my beloved Durst 138 enlarger go.
The Durst 138 enlarger quality is legendary and it is most stable and sharpest enlarger I've ever use, it has never, ever let me down.
It has the best set of Latico condensers I have come across for some time, six in all and I also have a list of condenser combinations and companion lenses.
Although the Durst 138 enlarger can print negatives that are 7 x 5 inches in size, I have successfully printed pin sharp prints from negatives from 35mm to 2 ¼ sq to 4 x5 inch. It has taken me some time to acquire the lens mount (the Latub) for the 35mm but I found one in the end and it works fine
