Pitch Control Audio maintains a large inventory of Technics SL-1200 / 1210 turntables, including the classic MK2, M3D, and MK5 models, the coveted 1210 M5G, and Japan exclusive imports such as the MK3 and MK6.
Prices vary according to model, color, cosmetic condition, and our current available stock — but typically range from $800-$900. See below sections for details.
PCA is a one man operation and, due to a high volume of requests, offers Technics turntables for sale on a “refurbish on demand” basis. See the pricing guidelines below. If you are interested in purchasing a turntable, you can submit a request using Contact form, via Instagram DM, or via text message.
PCA is currently offering turntables for sale via local pickup and delivery to the NYC area only. Delivery rates are determined based on location and subject to availability. Inquire for details.
Turnaround times can be as little as 1-3 days or several weeks depending on volume of requests and availability.
Pricing
Decks with noticeable paint scratching and cosmetic wear start at $800 each; decks ranging from light / average wear to excellent condition are priced at $850-$900 each.
In-demand models (such as the MK5) are typically priced on the higher end of the spectrum, as are black colored decks, which are less common than the standard silver.
Refurbished Technics SL-1210 M5G decks start at $1500 and can range to $2000 or more depending on condition and availability. We currently have several complete in box SL-1210 M5G turntables in stock — inquire for details.
