Mentioned in this June 2000 DJ Times interview. It is shown up close in the "Rock Show" music video at 1:38.

DJ Times: What’s your stage-show set-up?

Jay: I use the Technics 1200s and have been for a long time. But I’ve been working on those Vestax [PDX-a2S] turntables, the ones with the two stops on each side. You can stop the record from both sides. Since I left the DJ Expo in ’Frisco I’ve been messing with those new Vestax. I tried them out and liked them. When I got home, I got a couple. And I’m working with them tonight for the first time. For what I do in the show, I always have to chase that stop button. That part is eliminated with these. They’re really sturdy. They’re perfect for me.

DJ Times: And your mixer?

Jay: I’ve been messing with those Vestax 05-Pros or the 07. I like them both, but the 07 is better with the crossfade, the couple of reverse functions and the three-band equalizer for certain parts of the show. I don’t go through a tricks stage, besides a little backspinning and scratching our names. I backspin my name, but I’m not a trickster DJ.
