I will tell you... you'd better buy a SL-1200, i think that it's an instrument itself. Besides it has some extra features that make it special and you could get an used one for a few little bucks, (and an Mk II is an Mk II :) ).
I think that a turntable is a too simple thing to customize, and there are other things more fun and better to build or modify.
It's just my opinion.    

Bye! 

Yes, I'm trying to make it more SL-1200'ish.

Last time I looked, if I recall properly, the SL-Q200 had a label on it 
saying "Quartz locked"...

We're (probably) in luck then, huh !

Its possible you can add pitch control, but not likely to be very accurate.
The speed may drift on you.

If you are trying to convert your Q200 into an SL-1200 your probably out of
luck. The 1200s use a quartz lock mechanism to keep the tables turning at a
specific speed and I doubt the Q200 has those electronics present.
