Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the pitch slider on technics
1200s with the new ones, and if so, roughly how much would this cost?

Just wondered...

I have a pair of the older Vestax and I love them. I have no problem using 
Technics other than that annoying 0 pitch lock on the older models. My 
Vestax are not the ones with the +-50% but still the extra 2% on the slider 
helps a lot. I find the motor on the Vestax to be much stronger than on any 
Technics I've used and my only complaints are that the tone-arm seems to be 
lighter and not quite as stable and that when you hit stop it slows down 
instead of screeching to a halt like the Technics do. These problems may 
have been corrected on the newer Vestax.
