I bought a secondhand technics SL1200M3D but its in rough condition and I need all parts listed or good alternatives.
So far it needs the following;
A replacement headshell and weight with the ability to mount aux weights to it (original headshell was model number SFPCC31005K with an included SFPZB3501 weight and a SFPWG17202 Aux weight (cant find anywhere so far))
A replacement overhang gauge (original model SFK0135-01)
A replacement EP record adapter (original model SFWE010)
A replacement dust cover (original model SFAD122-01A)
A good cartridge recommendation that works well with this turntable (am planning on an ortofon 2m blue)
A new RCA with separate Grounding cable
Some basic calibration tool suggestions (anti skate, tracking force and angle calibration equipment)
And lastly a nice anti slip mat (original mat came badly damaged, model RGS0005Z)
Anything listed above for models is for reference to compare to other brand's gear
If you can find me oem parts or anything that will be comparable/better, I'm open to suggestions.
It just came with the turntable platter and mat with a carry case, so any suggestions for things I'm missing will be appreciated.
I have a record weight and basic cleaning gear (stylus brush, record cleaner kit, and record brush)
