If you’ve ever owned a Technics turntable, then you know that chances are they’ll perform for you without a hitch for years, possibly even a decade or more, before requiring any kind of major work.

Of course, I’d love to be able to tell you without a doubt that you will have the same kind of luck, but this is the real world we’re living in, and there’s bound to be one or two mishaps along the road, particularly if you’re working your Technics on a regular basis.

Thankfully, there are plenty of amazing websites that can help you not only find parts but even repair the machine. Let’s take a look at a few of these great websites and what they can offer a budding Technics DJ.

1200s.com

This website is pretty comprehensive, and the title should tell you what to expect here. Not only are there tons of parts and accessories you can order, but there’s a link to a very special “DIY DJ Repair” section where you can watch videos that can help you do all sorts of maintenance work on your Technics turntable. Need to disassemble your SL-1200MK2, or maybe just curious to find out how it’s done? Watch the video. There are also several articles and tutorials on how to DJ.

TurntableBasics.com

This is a great little website, very bare bones in terms of content but there’s a really nice advice page on how to get the most out of your turntable and keep your sound consistent. On top of that, TurntableBasics.com offers a wide variety of parts, preamps, damping fluid, cartridges and much more. If you need something replaced, more than likely you’re going to find it here – a quality website that’s fairly easy to navigate and down to earth.

DJ-Tips-And-Tricks.com

This is perhaps the big daddy of them all – this site’s got tons and tons of information on working as a DJ, improving your skills and even promoting yourself through producing a mix tape of your stuff. There’s a great article specifically written for DJ’s trying to master their Technics turntables, with tons of great tips for new and old users alike, and a great article for the experienced covering advanced mixing. Definitely worth checking out.

TurnTableTech.com

This is one last website you won’t want to miss, as it carries loads of Technics parts for competitive prices. There’s a pretty detailed do-it-yourself section here as well, though it’s dry and 100% text – a lot of good information there if you are determined enough.

There are plenty of great websites to help you on your way to DJ stardom. With these sites in tow, you’ll be that much closer to getting back on the road and working the crowds.
