Modifying a Garrard

Arne · 30th April 2005, 10:18 PM

I have been reading up on all these people transforming old Garrard players into these ultra hifi pieces of phono art. Today I almost literally stumbled across an SP20 and decided to take it home.

The obvious question being; can I do that to an SP20? Is it worth it? What are the easies modifications that lead to the biggest gain in musical enjoyment...

No. The only Garrards worth messing with are 301 and 401.
