Description
Hi! I have been selling on eBay for over 20 years and I am proud to have a 100%, 5-star rating from over 600 sales. If you read my eBay feedback as a seller, you will see that my customers are always happy with what they receive from my sales and auctions. I always describe the items I offer as honestly and accurately as possible with plenty of clear and detailed photographs. In addition, I am very meticulous about packaging items for shipping. I use either genuine Linn packaging or quality, sturdy double-boxed packaging to ensure the item arrives in the condition it left me. I am happy to ship to Canada and the entire USA while some select items are also offered to the UK. I have completely dismantled this turntable and then either replaced or meticulously cleaned and reconditioned every component as it was rebuilt. Rest assured, I have rebuilt dozens of Linn Sondek LP12 turntables over the years with excellent results and every new owner has been very pleased - I only recently began selling them on eBay, however. Product Description: The plinth is stunning superior quality fluted plinth constructed from carefully selected, kiln-dried Oak which has a beautiful natural finish. It is corner braced, perfectly level, and in new condition. The top-plate is an original Linn one which has been carefully cleaned and reinstalled using brand-new washers and nyloc nuts. The sub-chassis is a genuine Linn bonded model which has been thoroughly checked to ensure no warping, carefully cleaned, and re-fit to the plinth also using brand-new hardware. It has the superior Linn Cirkus bearing which has been carefully cleaned and was found to be in excellent condition. It comes with the matching Linn inner platter and a beautifully cleaned Linn outer platter. In addition, a genuine and brand-new Linn felt mat is included. The tonearm is a genuine Linn Ekos (Mark I) which easily passes the swing and bob tests confirming the horizontal and vertical bearings are in excellent shape while the head-shell presents in fine condition. The tonearm cable is also an original and as-new Linn T-Cable while the tonearm board is a brand-new Linn model of their latest design. As for the mechanics, the springs and grommets are genuine Linn and brand-new while the motor is a brand-new Linn Premotec model which will provide years of trouble-free service. The mudguard washers and aerotight lock nuts have been replaced with brand-new and the ground wire (earth cable) is also a brand-new Linn one. I have supplied a brand-new Linn belt and a vial of spare Linn oil is also provided for the bearing. The power supply is an original Linn Valhalla that has been thoroughly tested, completely cleaned and serviced with new capacitors, a higher-rated Bridge rectifier, and a Surge Guard varistor. A brand-new, fast-blow ceramic fuse has also installed. It supports 110v or 240v operation and will be set to 110v operation to function in North America unless 240v is requested. I have included a brand-new superior quality 18-gauge, 5-foot power (mains) cable with a North American 3-prong plug which can be swapped for a UK 3-prong plug if desired. The lid (dustcover) is genuine and brand-new as supplied by Linn and comes complete with brand-new Linn hinges. The base is a genuine Linn Trampoline II baseboard for superior vibration isolation. Comes complete with a free, bonus suspension adjustment tool if any tweaks are needed in the years to come. Setup and Instructions: To help if you are new to the world of Linn LP12s, I supply detailed instructions to assist in set-up and, while the bearing will be lubricated with brand-new Linn oil and a vial of spare Linn oil will be provided, instructions will also be provided as to how the confirm the oil level prior to use. Prior to shipping it will have all adjustments made including setting the springs for that special Linn pistonic bounce and the motor speed will also set by using a KAB Speedstrobe quartz-locked strobe-light system (the gold standard). I am happy to answer setup questions to ensure you are happy with your purchase. This a stellar Linn Sondek LP12 which looks and plays like new so please bid or buy with confidence.

THE FINE PRINT - PLEASE READ Please contact me before Bidding or Buying if you have Zero, Very Low, or Excessively Negative Feedback otherwise I reserve the right to cancel the sale and refund your money. Warranty and technical support are available online or from the respective company - I do not provide technical support, but I am willing to answer questions to try to help you out. Refunds will ONLY be issued if item does not arrive or is not as described as required by eBay policy - make sure this item is what you want/need/can use as the sale will not be cancelled and a refund will not be issued if you buy the wrong thing or change your mind - please ask before bidding or buying. All items are described as honestly and as accurately as possible. Please inspect the photos carefully as you will receive exactly what is photographed. Damage can occur during shipping so you need to take that up with the shipper and not request a refund or leave negative feedback. Please contact me so I can try to help. I will only ever ship to the address eBay has on file for you or else the system thinks the item was never delivered. eBay automatically calculates shipping and is pretty accurate, but any underages or overages are not charged or refunded respectively. eBay automatically collects tax for items being shipped to some locations - I do not control this nor can I prevent it. In Canada, GST is automatically charged on all eBay purchases since 2022, even though I am not running a business and the item you are buying may be pre-owned. Thank our stupendous federal government. Shipping is always more expensive than people realize - please do not expect or ask for free shipping. Please ask questions before buying or bidding. Thanks
