Hot off the press...Technics SL 1300G

@lewm got mine from JP

And the SP10R platter mates and fits a 1200G? Which surprises me even more than the fact you can acquire one. But I suspect JP would have the wherewithal to make that work, if no one else in the US could do it.

Just curious who is JP?

@yogiboy

JP was on Audiogon awhile back, might still be here.  How do I describe him. Surfing scientist that has the technical skills and patience to fix some of the most difficult analog equipt known to man. Those that know JP, probably have a better description of him. Basically a nice guy who has great analog equipt and knows how to fix challenging gear. That’s it!

Find him at Fidelis Analog. He’s a qualified EE who may even have an affiliation with Technics. Among other things, he re-engineered the MN6042 chip needed to make the first generation Technics TTs run correctly using discrete parts on a PCB no bigger than an OEM MN6042 chip.

Whoops! Just looked at the website. JP closed Fidelis Analog in May.
