Help with My Records!

[DJCraig Ryan]

What it is:

I've noticed a few of my records skipping lately. Is it because im not looking after my records, is it because their old or wear & tear, or is it my decks.

Is there anyway i can get them back?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,

if there isnt visible marks on the tracks then id look at your needles first, skips are so annoying arent they :evil:

Nice one Greg, i'm thinking it is my needles. Might be time for some new Carts!

im having the exact same problem.thing is though that it only does it on certain tracks,but i cant find a single scratch on them.wouldnt it skip all the time if my needles where goosed? :scratch:

Finally got round to getting some new carts yesterday. Got some Stantons for £50. Well worth it aswell, big difference in quality and sound.
And most importantly, hopefully they will look after my records!!

Bassline Junkie, i would advise you to get some new Carts mate!
