Mate of mine just purchased a new pitch for his technics 1200's and is saying about it being stiff.. It is brand new not second hand btw. Any suggestions?
http://dnbforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=30 the pitch is stiff because it's brand new and hasn't been worn in
Pull the pitch knob off and remove the little black washer underneath - it helps but you'll need to break them in a bit brother
