Technics 1200 MK2's (silver)

These need no introduction at all. Both work flawlessly, and have gold plated, insulated RCA wires installed with built in ground. (no hiss, hum, or buzz from these babies!)
There are some slight scratches from use, and I only have 1 dust cover.
They both come with diamond tipped elliptical stanton groovriders (the best needles available at the time, with the best cartridges)

I'm selling them because they're not getting as much use as they used to a few years ago. I might even give away the Gemini mixer with it free. I will not part with ANY of my vinyl =)

$1200 FIRM

so you selling TTs and keeping vynils?
why?

I could, but the price will shock everyone, i've got over 500 records ($7500 approx)

I'm putting them all onto CD slowly. Once that's done I'll consider selling them, but until then, I'd like to keep them since I went through so much trouble getting a lot of these rare old hardcore and oldskool jungle albums.

exactly. Also, these are somewhat of a solid investment too. Technics 1200's hardly ever depreciate in value. I don't think I've seen too many used ones for sale for less than $1000 a pair, and those ones were more beat up than mine.
They're just in really high demand all the time.

yes.... 1210's too.... they are a lot tighter than 1200's.... but I used to get them from a guy in Chicago who used to YANK the shippments from Panasonic for $50-$100 usd each deck.

Ohhhhh..... the good ol' days!

I used to sell those tables for $300 USD and still make people happier than pigs in sh*t and make a NICE margin!

But.... you know what they say... easy come easy go... I think the buddy of mine in Chicago is doing 5-10 in the pen since this is his 2nd time getting pinched...

MIke.

What time period are we talking about in regards to the jungle? Hook me up with some beats. Do you have that Jeru da Damaja jungle rmx (can't remember track name about 4-6 years ago)? You got any Aqua Bassino?
