The SL-1210M5G Grand Master Direct Drive Turntable offers even more features then the standard-setting SL-1200MK2 or the newly introduced SL-1200MK5. Technologically advanced tonearm modifications virtually eliminate skipping making it awesome for scratching, and now you can customize braking speeds to suit your applications. Another great feature of the SL-1210M5G is the zero pitch Quartz-Lock button and expanded pitch range options: ±8% or ±16% via computerized pitch control, with blue LED numbers indicating the amount of pitch adjustment currently applied. A second button next to the pitch reset button allows switching between the two levels of pitch adjustment.
