Linn LP12 ..still a good table??


After 15 years of digital Ive decided like alot to get back into analog.I have been offered an older 1970s LP12 w/Grace arm just serviced with new belts etc for a tad under what the market will support.My question is simply this..Is this table still considered good or should I pass and move onto newer production tables,if so what should I consider (under 1500.00 new or used)..thanks

Missioncoonery,
Where do you live? Most major metropolitan areas have at least one person who is able to do a proper set-up on a Linn LP12.
Any recommendations for a Linn setup person in the SF Bay Area? The last Linn TT dealer here that I know of, Access to Music, has closed.
I used to live in the SF Bay Area. The
Analog Room in San Jose did all the work on my Linn. I think the owner's name is Brian. He did an excellent job.
Drubin,

From Access's web site:

We are closing our retail store on December 26, 2009.

We are continuing business as a custom installation company specializing in stereo sales and turntable upgrades.

Might be worth a try
