Version 2 of the officially licensed Technics × Dr. Suzuki Skratch slipmats, featuring the classic large mirrored Technics logo on grey, hand built in Japan. The same smooth, low-static Skratch performance for scratching, mixing and DVS, with the legacy Technics design DJs grew up with. Made under license from Panasonic, the maker of Technics turntables. Comes as a pair with slipsheets.

  • Official Technics collaboration, Version 2. Produced by STOKYO under license from Panasonic Corporation, owner of the Technics brand.
  • The legacy Technics logo. Version 2 carries the classic large Technics logo with its mirrored reflection, the design DJs know from decades of Technics mats. Version 1 uses a smaller Technics logo above the Dr. Suzuki logo.
  • Dr. Suzuki Skratch performance. A smooth, single-level surface for scratching, backspins and mixing, with anti-static fabric that helps stop records from clinging.
  • Built to last. Heat-treated, coated edges and center hole resist fraying and stretching.
  • Pair, with slipsheets. Two 12" mats and two slipsheets. Works with vinyl and DVS control records.
  • Hand built in Japan. Like every Dr. Suzuki slipmat.

About the Technics × Dr. Suzuki collection

Dr. Suzuki has been refining slipmats in Japan for more than 40 years, choosing materials and testing for hours to get the feel DJs need. The Technics × Dr. Suzuki collection pairs that craft with the name behind the industry-standard DJ turntable. This Version 2 Skratch edition is built on Dr. Suzuki's Skratch mat, the successor to their third-series Tablecloth, with a flat, one-level surface and anti-static fabric, finished with official Technics branding.

Skratch or Mix Edition?

The Skratch is made very thin and light on purpose, so it doesn't drag while you cut. The trade-off: when you lift a record off the platter, air pressure can hold the mat to the back of the record, and the mat is too light to drop back down on its own. That's not static, it's just how a mat this light behaves. If you mostly scratch or play DVS control vinyl, you'll rarely notice it. If you mix and change records all through a set, go with the Technics × Dr. Suzuki Mix Edition or the standard Dr. Suzuki Mix Edition. They're heavier, so they stay on the platter when you pull a record off.
