About this gear
The Garrard 401, introduced in 1965 as the successor to the 301, is an idler-wheel turntable renowned for its rock-solid speed stability and punchy, authoritative bass response, qualities that made it a favorite in BBC broadcast studios. Decades later it remains a cornerstone of the vintage turntable restoration scene, frequently rebuilt into custom plinths paired with premium tonearms and cartridges. Its appeal lies in a raw, dynamic sound signature that differs markedly from modern belt-drive designs.
