The most stunning 1200s ever made
2 of 2 found this helpful If you know anything about Technics 1200s, then you already know that these are the SH**! Basically a pimped out M5G. Uses a digital pitch fader that has ability to switch between +/-8 and +/-16, has a built in holder for a backup head shell, Panasonics higher-end RCA cable and of gold plating. One thing I noticed that is different (compared to an LTD) is on the strobe markings. The old 1200s have 0, +/-3 and +/-6%, whereas the GLD has 0, +/-3 and +/-6.4%. Makes me thing you wouldn't want to DJ with an LTD and a GLD or you may find a bit of variance in pitch as you go up in speed.
These aren't cheap! Stay patient and you may be lucky to find one or two for a decent starting bid. I happened to get one at a fair price but don't understand how guys are asking upwards of 5K+ on buy it now.
