GARRARD 301


Manufactured by the Garrard Engineering and Manufacturing Company Ltd of Swindon (G.B.), was introduced in 1954. The model stayed in production until to 1970’s.

It uses the idler drive system (the alternating current motor is engaged to an intermediate, the idler wheel, to rotate the platter).

Woodsong Audio Upper platter mat adapter


Do you want to use any platter mat on your Thorens TD124, elimintating the stock upper platter hub / mat hold down / 7" adapter?
Installation takes only a few minutes, using the original fastener plate on the underside of the upper platter.



This adapter is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, and is clear anodized. The bushing is a leaded bearing bronze.
3 x M3 socket head cap screws and the proper hex key are included. These screws match the original thread pitch of the original part.
