Let's Play Vinyl TM
A concept folded paper guide on how to set-up a DJ turntable's needle for proper record play.

Concept
"How to..." Setup a Record Player
In the modern age of digital media, phonograph turntables and vinyl records are considered nostalgia, but vinyl records are still popular. Because vinyl is still popular, the knowledge on how to properly setup a turntable is almost oral tradition or hidden amongst the initial setup instructions that are provided, but the skillset on how to do it in the field is not always known.
