Can I build an Linn LP-12 piece by piece?


With all the separate parts for an LP12 available on eBay,plinth,armboard,arm etc. I was wondering if it would be feasible to build a Frankenstein version. With time and Patience and of course some cash I bet it could be done at a substantial savings. What parts do you think would be the hardest to locate? Any suggestions or input would be appreciated.

I prefere assembling a computer by myself i.e. buying separate pts over the internet to built one whole thing. That gives me a huge savings v.s. store prices even at big sale + desired functionality with desired parts.

I don't think that assembling a turntable would bring you same results unless you're going to try something new and unique.
