Each LP12 is different, and they all come with their own history.
Restoration can come in many forms and is dependent on what the turntable and the owner needs. Sometimes, it’s about basic husbandry; to ensure what already exists works as well as it should. Other times, it’s repairing damage suffered because the turntable is unusable, through happenstance or age.
We’ve completed restorations that go from sensitive attention, through to complete rebuilds. With an extensive examination and compilation of a condition report in advance of work being undertaken, you can be assured of complete transparency and support to help you decide the appropriate course of action.
