Linn Basik restoration

Good luck on any assistance with Linn in the USA.  Call a dealer near you though and put the burden on them.  They are representing after all.  https://www.linn.co.uk/us/try-linn  I own a fair amount of Linn, hate the support but love the sound. 

Another thing to try would be find a good finish carpenter.  Odds are, this could work out better for you.  Just explain the frail parts.  MDF, while seen by many as a total neutral item will swell like an old woman's ankles if it gets wet and there is no recovery. 

Side note, your symbol is Zappa.  I saw the Zappa band with King Crimson September 2.  They still got it and are aging out like a real fine wine. 

Thanks for the reply! I was jist about to give up on finding any assistance in the US and on Agon! 

I think I will go the carpenter route as there seems to be no other options. Nearest Linn dealer is 3 hours away. The table needs very little work, and it’s playing as I type this. Just cosmetic issues I want to tighten up, then I’ll probably use it as my mono player. 

Been a Zappa fam since the 70’s but sadly never saw Frank live. I’ve seen Dweezil a handful of times and he is capable of giving a Frank fan goose bumps. I’m sure the show you saw was fantastic!
