About Martin Bastin

Martin Bastin is a UK-based boutique engineer and craftsman specializing in high-end analogue audio components, particularly for classic Garrard turntables. He is well-known for his custom plinths (notably the Maxiplank design), precision-engineered bearings, idler wheel upgrades, and advanced mains regenerators such as the Wave Mechanic power supply. Bastin's components and restorations are highly acclaimed by enthusiasts for bringing out the best performance in classic decks, and his products are typically made in limited quantities in his own workshop. He also designed power supplies for brands like Analogue Works. Martin Bastin is recognized as an authority on Garrard upgrades but does not operate a public-facing brand website or broad retail presence.
