Frequently Asked Questions
As we receive between 20-40 inquiries per day! Please have a read through our FAQ’s before contacting us as most of the time, you will find your answer here:
How much is a full service?
You can find all the details for Servicing >here<
Where are you based and can I just pop over?

My Technics Turntable has a major problem, how much will it cost?
We can’t quote on any repairs, such as erratic speed issues, Tonearm problems etc unless we physically inspect the turntable.
Please contact us to arrange drop-off.
I only want the “phono cables” changed on my turntable without having a service?
We can carry out any of the “Service Add-ons” without having a service however you will be charged a labor fee on top of the add-on price! The labor fee is £60 per hour. This will cover opening up the turntable, installing the requested parts, testing and rebuilding the turntable.
What’s the procedure once I drop my Turntable(s) off to you?
For servicing, sometimes we can inspect your turntable(s) at drop off and give you a fairly accurate quote there and then, otherwise you will receive a WhatsApp video explaining any issues and costings.
Can I courier my turntables to you?
Short answer, no! While we appreciate your custom and the fact that you’ve chosen us to work on your turntable(s), we’re more than busy enough with customers who are able to drop off and collect personally (many customers can travel upto 4 hours to drop their beloved turntable(s) to us!) so we do not need the added hassle of dealing with couriers and having to repackage up your turntables. The only exception is if you have the full original Technics Factory packaging, we may allow a courier delivery.
I want to buy a Technics Turntable, where can I find your current stock list?
Please check our EBAY SHOP HERE for our latest “ready”stock available however we probably have the UK’s largest stock of Technics Turntables so please get in touch if you’re after anything in particular because we probably have it!
Do you buy Technics Turntables?
Yes, we buy several per week! Feel free to email or WhatsApp us over some photos and a description outlining any faults, your location and a rough price of what you are hoping to get. If you are not local, you are required to suitably package the turntable(s) and we can possibly arrange courier collection.

Technics SL1200MK2, SL1200MK5, SL1200LTD, SL1200 GLD, SL1210MK2, SL1210M3D, SL1210MK5, SL1210M5G
We will sometimes service & repair other makes and models of turntables at our discretion so it’s still worth asking!
