I go to this place called SOLUTIONS on Sunset (323.666.4161) ask for Stephen.

FYI... they are not cheap, but VERY thorough ($200-$250). I got my techs refurbed by them 5+ years ago, and have not have a problem with 'em.

Good luck!

That's what I'm saying. Depends on what needs repair though, but stuff like replacing the RCAs, tonearms, recalibrating pitch sliders, changing pop-up light, etc. can be easily done by yourself even if you know little to nothing about electronics cause there's plenty of guides on the internet. I mean if you're paying $250 for someone to do that you're getting ripped hardcore. Hell for $250 you could buy a used MK2s.
