I have 2, 1210 Mk 2 Technics. Had them for many many years, I have replaced the pitch control, still work like new. A real DJ's best friend.
I have 2 Technic 1200 MK2 for my DJing that I do. Absolutely bulletproof design and construction. Was the Club standard for over 40years. Mine are still playing great after almost 20 years I've owned them.A good video for someone not too familiar with turntables.
ah nice!! thank you for watching..
When you balance a tonearm properly, the tonearm should be floating completely parallel (flat) to the table and not pointing up or down any degree. When you achieve that then you set the marker to 0 and go from there.
Totally agree….
He did say that, but not in your words...He said floating at 90 degrees
This was an interesting me fun video to watch. Great tips, especially about oiling the spindle. You looked up an MK7 AC for like 1800 bucks, the MK two in my opinion in great condition will still outlast the newer versions of the been coming out.
Dust covers are immaculate, but the 45 adapter toss that piece of plastic out at least by an OEM or close to OEM replacement.
Be happy you didn’t have to replace that tonearm, I’ve done a few of those and they are not fun.
Next time you do something like this it might be cool to show people the dots on the platter and how they are moving so you can make sure that your platter is spinning properly at 3.3+ and minus etc. I think a lot of people would love to know and understand how the dots work lol
I got my first pair of 12s In 1995, beat up by a wedding DJ company. Upgraded the new ones over the years have swapped and sold and played on all of them but still love my 1210 M5G’s.
Although I’m tracking down eight new gold banded turntable feet in great condition OEM and man those aren’t cheap.
🥳
Oh wow...GREAT pointers, YES really would of been nice to show that for sure.... I will for sure next time buddy.
Thanks for watching man...hope to see you around...
A lot of clubs used these tables, and some still may. I went with a Kenwood KD-500 back in the day, which let me furnish an ADC straight arm. It still runs just like new, though I did have to manually clean the speed pots once. Fully-manual has its disadvantages!
Ok good to know.... thanks for watching...apprey it man....
Nicely done!
Thank You very much!!!
Awesome 😎 video ..I have two 2️⃣ that’s needs restoration 😢
awesome job. Technics THE BEST. Great video
Glad you liked it! Thank You
Great video, great repair! That stylus definitely needed to be replaced but kuddos on servicing the rest of the turntable 😃
Thank You!
I had to giggle when I seen the shape of the Stylus...
@@VintageAudioFever lol I can imagine, "oh, so you say for some unknown reason it sounds weird?" Hahahaha
I have that turntable. Love it!
great job
Some people say the axis should be cleaned before putting new oil in...
Hey Joe ask her if she wants to sell it to a guy in Texas. That's a beauty!
Haha! She won't, it's was gaven to her by her uncle and this person loves her music ..I know she will keep that forever...
Wonderful machine in turntable me use am deserve music lovers namaste ,,tacknics 1200 mk 3,,

Beautiful turntable ♥️
It really is!
Wow it’s in a mint condition 🦾
Great work. Well done.
Thank You... really appreciate you viewing my videos..
good works
Thank you so much 😀
didnt see ya set the anti skate after setting the stylus pressure
Verygod,
Thank You
Good job! Congrats
Thanks!
You did a good job, can I asked what you used to clean the cover, my cover has some marks and I want to try to bring it back to looking new
I used dish soap on a wet cloth, keep it wet and scrub...it will come off
I've noticed that you are using the thick (6mm) slipmat on this MK2.. and the vts is set to 3mm. Normally using this 6mm slipmat the vts should be set to zero (0mm).. in order to keep the tonearm parallel to the record.
Good point....I am gonna check that out.
thank you!
Rather than play music you could explain a bit about what you are doing. Thnx
Very well !!!
I appreciate you comment...thank you
I have a Technics SLM-3 automatic turntable that has a tracking issue. I've owned since 1985 when I purchased it while stationed in West Germany. It is a linear track direct drive system and I would love to have it back up and running once again. Contact me if you'll consider having a look at it. Thank you.
where abouts are you located? I have never worked on a linear tracking turntable...I did check yours on line ...it would be worth looking into it for sure....
shoot me a message of what exactly was the issue, I know you say the linear track! can you elaborate on the exact issue.
and thank you for watching my video, truly appreciate it man.
I’m still wondering the mechanism of injury to the stylus:Force enough to bend and rotate the aluminum cantilever ninety degrees yet it didn’t snap off? It’s as though a set of needle nose pliers held the cantilever steady at the base and another set did the bending, ie deliberate. But who’d do that? Someone trying to change the angle or azimuth? On go the possibilities. Weird.
yeah I know..
when I seen the shape of the stylus and the bend I wondered the same thing, I was thinking more of someone accidently hook the stylus as he was putting the record on to the platine...
that would be something posible, I can't imagine it was done on purpose, it's a fair enough explination.
I do know this turntable comes from a DJ night club so anything is possible.
Probably a little kid...
Did you need to adjust the anti skating settings
Hey Adil, yes the anti skate was set at MAX when I go it, she may have tried to compensate with the stylus in the shape it was in but I did set it to #2.
Wow the job cool ! Are you in USA or Canada and if Canada are you in Ontario / BC / Quebec province plz ?

cool, pas trop loin comme ca!@@markchapman7326
@@VintageAudioFever Je possede une 1200mk2 de 1991 ... j aime ma table
hmmm. this guy seems to have never seen an 1200 before? the most ubiquitous turntable ever made? seems odd.
Hi what did you use to clean the surface of the plinth please? thanks
I'm not familiar with word plinth but I assume you mean the surface and I used dish soap in a bowel and a dam cloth...lot's of scrubbing.
I wouldn't use anything stronger than dish soap....
piece rate or (khareed )?
I do this as a hobby...so i charged her 40$ labor....+the Stylus
Where abouts are you located?
How much?
I charge 40$ for service this turntable
how much?
How much for what? I don't understand
@@VintageAudioFever I would assume the question is "How much did you change for the service?"
I used a translator and I did reply to him....
My first thought was how much to buy it, as so many commenters blindly ask. They assume every piece of gear in a video is up for grabs.
lavoro fatto male… il perno si smonta e si pulisce prima di rimettere olio

ok....your far away haha. thank you for watching my videos...appreciate it ALOT!
"Wasn't playing right"........stylus💩
did you just call me shit head?
Antiskate...
I did set the anti skate to #2 and I'm sorry i didn't show that on my video... making video's editing etc is not easy lol but I'm learning...
It will be on my next video for sure
Good turntable by Technics. What surprises me is that there's no tone arm stand at all. That's weird. Nice job. 💽
Good point!
??? Watch again. He locks it at 7:20 after setting the tracking weight. Since this model has a height adjustable tonearm pivot, the clamp is back by the cuing lift, not half way to the headshell.
