2016 PEARL JAM "PJ" TURNTABLE SLIP MAT***

The 2016 Turntable Slipmat is here!

Spin. Spin. Spin the black and white and gold...

Let your vinyl ride in style with this 12" sublimation printed felt slipmat.

Q: What's a slipmat?

A: A slipmat is a circular piece of slippery cloth or synthetic materials disk jockeys place on the turntable platter instead of the traditional rubber mat.

Unlike the rubber mat which is made to keep hold the record firmly in sync with the rotating platter, slipmats are designed to slip on the platter, allowing the DJ to manipulate a record on a turntable while the platter continues to rotate underneath. This is useful for holding a record still for slip-cueing, making minute adjustments during beatmatching and mixing and pulling the record back and forth for scratching.

They are also very commonly used simply as decoration for when a record isn't on the turntable. - from wikipedia aka the interwebs

***Turntable not included.

    Is this a felt mat? I hate the way the record sticks to those when you flip the LP

    I rarely buy anything for the 10c store these days because of the high prices and shipping costs. I did buy one of these but still wasn't happy about $6 shipping for a piece of felt.

    I would assume felt. Yea, static can be bad. That is why I moved to a cork mat.

    I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but I also appreciated the explanation. If you're not a DJ, then this is nothing more than a vanity piece.

    I have never used a felt mat - i use rubber. Sounds like felt is not something I should switch to... bummer. Close but no cigar I guess.
    Thanks 10C ... maybe you can offer a rubber version for the next design. I would buy that.
    Edit: mixed reviews i'm seeing now on felt. So do felt mats suck or not, assuming it's notnfor DJing? This doesn't really seem like something that would be a matter of opinion, lol, and yet....
    What about cleaning a felt mat? And cat hair? Are wayward cat hairs extremely attracted to a felt mat?

    Well rubber prolly is safer. You wouldn't want your equipment to catch anything ... :wink: .
    Oh please let it rain today.

    I grabbed the Queens of the Stone Age slip mat a while back and it is felt. It is thick and does not stick to the vinyl at all. And I don't notice any static with the thicker felt.
    Hope this is the same quality.
