Garrard 401 - DIY Slate Plinth robbmcaulay Nov 10, 2010 1 2 Next robbmcaulay Active Member Nov 10, 2010 #1 Hello AK, I realise that this may not be as DIY as some plinths you may have seen. I mean DIY in the sense that it's not an off the shelf plinth On its release in 1965 the Garrard 401 promised a number of design changes that would improve on the performance of the Garrard 301 that had been around since 1954, unfortunately the quality control on the 401 was not up to scratch and what should have been a sonic step forward was not fully exploited….until now. Garrard 401 with Bubinga This CLD plinth is made from 18mm Birch plywood with a 22mm MDF base. The plinth is wrapped with fine cuts of Bubinga with a satin poly-wax finish. The removable armboard is also Bubinga and has a dual arm configuration that can fit either a 9" or 12" tonearm. There is a second tonearm position for a Rega mount-type arm. 401 Plinths. I know slate is probably the preferred choice sonically, but I just love the look of the 401 in a real wood plinth. This, to my eyes, is the most beautiful wooden plinth I've ever seen for a 401 - the fact that the deck is recessed into the plinth just makes it look so much classier, IMO, and is the sort of thing I will be aiming.
