The legend not only lives but is better than ever, with the Technics SL1200G.
A legend in the home, studio and club
Developed as a turntable that was sturdy enough to be used professionally but simple and attractive enough to use at home, the Technics SL1200 was a hit from the beginning. Starting life in the early '70s, the SL1200 lived through five versions (in the UK) and, even at its demise in around 2010 was still seen by many as the reference deck for club use. Now it's back and, in G form, it's the best ever regular model!
The best SL1200 ever
The Technics SL1200 has always been superbly built but this is even better. Added to the existing three-layer chassis is a new, 10mm thick top panel, crafted from solid aluminium. This provides superior damping for a more dynamic sound. A newly developed, coreless motor is used to cut down on vibration with twin rotors providing high torque and an even load on the bearing. In short, the new SL1200G shouldn't just be the best-sounding but also the hardest wearing - with a weight of 18kg to prove it.
High spec magnesium tonearm
Unique to the top spec SL1200G is a magnesium tonearm (the standard models feature an aluminium one). Lightweight magnesium offers a high damping effect; quelling distortion. It’s also extremely rigid, helping the tonearm offer the most precise and detailed sound. High precision bearings and Technics’ gimbal suspension provide the smoothest tracking
Connect your own cables
Rather than using static cables, the SL1200G features brass-milled, gold-plated phono terminals. These let you choose your own length and quality of cable that's worthy of a deck of this capability.
Increased pitch control
A new 'x2' button lets you double the range of the pitch control from +/- 8% to +/-16%. This extra range makes it even more flexible as a mixing tool and even handier in the studio than ever.
Whether it's for use at home or earning its keep in clubs, the Technics SL1200G is simply the best of the best.

stunning and excellent sounding turntable
moved up from a 1210mk7 to the 1200G based on several reviews (print and online) as well as some dedicated advice.
having installed it and had a few listens this truly is a step up from your 'average' technics. the sounds is pretty uncoloured and precise. absolutely in love

Quality product and should last a lifetime
The sound quality is superb - paired with an Ortofon 2M black cartridge and headshell - I can hear every detail in the sound - makes me smile every time I put on a record. The build quality is phenomenal - this will last forever if well looked after. Out performs my old Rega in so many ways - but should do considering the price!

Technic 1200g
I have previously owned a couple of rega decks and then more recently a pair of 1210 mk 3s. I was considering going down upgrading the power supply etc on one of my 1210s but decided in the end to take the jump and bought the 1200g. This has been a great move for me coming from the 1210s. It has meant I have retained all that great usability and build quality while enjoying a massive boost in audio quality. Highly recommended.

Superb customer service and product.
Bought the turntable over the phone due to store being closed. The staff were friendly and very helpful. They provided ample information regarding the item and made the whole process very pleasant. Delivery was punctual with information about timescales being provided well in advance as well as the courier contacting a couple of hours before delivery. The item arrived in pristine condition. An exemplary service that is second to none. Thank you. Will definitely buy from RS again.

Quality is the only word to describe this deck
From the moment you unpack the deck from the box, to setting it up, to playing your favourite vinyls you can tell the deck is worth every penny. Precision functionality and beautiful on the eye.
