Hello DJTTs forums! I have found some used technics M5GS from a guitar center for $500 a piece and was wondering whether or not to pull the trigger on em. Im gonna use em with my Xone Dx and purchase traktor scratch pro as well. They said that needles and carts are not included. I attached the photos of them .[ATTACH]3558[/ATTACH]

pics arent loading properly, i uploaded them to photobucket.

Pretty expensive, no? I was offered 2 1200’s a while back for $200 each I think…

Nada, these are M5G’s, aka the Grandmasters.

supersanj, I was actually looking at buying some M5G’s a couple days ago, when I checked the completed listings on eBay, most of them were going for between 400 and 500. If you’d rather not deal with the hassle of eBay and waiting for them to ship then I’d say go for them.

thanks for the advice. did you see the pics? at first i was a little concerned about the state of the tts, but maybe its just me. theres another listing on craigslist for some 1210s for 500 for both, but i like the convenience of just paying by credit card and i think gc has a return policy if something is wrong with them.

Yea, I looked at the pictures, they’re not too bad! Definitely better than the ones I was looking at haha >.<

M5G’s are, hands down, the best turntables i’ve ever played on. They are worth the extra money, no doubt.

They’re not having counterweights, slipmats or headshells.

hahaha djsakebomb, sorry but they’re about to be mine! lol im definitely gonna get them ASAP. I just got off the phone with them to check on the counterweights, bc i didnt see that the counter weights and the 45 adaptors, and they are included! super cised as of right now lol.

does anyone have any experience with the S-120s? i think i might get them bc theyre only 4 bucks more than M447s. both are mounted on headshells, but i dont want the s-120 concordes
