Entry level turntable for my son

Hello all, 
My 16 year old has the same audio sickness as me. He recently approached me about acquiring a turntable for his system. Any recommendations on the entry level stuff from Rega, project, music hall, etc? Should I stick with the newer stuff or look for an older model like a Planar 3 or a MMF-5? I still use my Linn LP 12,  but I hear the newer ones out there have some nice new features the older entry level stuff didn’t. I don’t think he will be looking to do any modifications in the near future, he just wants to spin some vinyl. 
Thanks in advance!

I recently broke my old,cheap turntable that I bought off eBay like 6 years ago. It was a bummer, I was hoping it'd hold out until I picked up high end table later this year.

I picked up a $250 Fluance table off Amazon for the interim. FOR THE PRICE, I've been very pleased with it. You might want to check it out.

ps. I'm not using the built-in phono amp.
