Concorde Scratch - especially developed for scratch and back-cueing

It is made of a fluorescent neon-red material with the intention of it becoming highly apparent in the spotlight and luminous in ultraviolet light. For DJs that require increased tracking ability, the Scratch is up to the task. As implied by the name, the Scratch is intended especially for the disciplines of scratch and back-cueing.

Featuring a reinforced rubber suspension, DJs need not worry about compromising sound quality and stylus life when working with higher tracking forces. With solid bass reproduction and extended highs, the Scratch is great for any style, providing energetic, in-your-face sound.

Very high output! Maximum scratch performance guaranteed!
