hi guys, sorta need/want a tonearm i have a pl15 technics(one that i got lucky, really lucky) this one now has the wooden micro track 303 arm, arm works ok,BUT the shaky hand that controls it is...HELL shaky... if i have my wishes, a sorta decent high end would be nice but cant spend a whole lot of monies. what i think i want is an arm with a clamp screw headshell(i think that is what it is called) and an arm lift to assist with the shakes. if anyone has something let me know please.... everyone have a nice/safe memorial day

So the lucky winnah is here!

And it's a "bayonnet" mount to my recollection where you screw the collar on the shell.

So what are you wanting straight, S, high mass/low mass/not a churchy type?

Just one to play "Churchy La Femme"?

what matters the most is(1) that it works (2) has a lift (3) and removable headshell(bayonnet)
straight/S does not matter, probably because i do not know enough to make such a call on that
(but i am willing to try and learn)

after looking S would probably be the better i have headshells for that...

It looks to me that indeed it does have a lift, look closely under the gimbel (up/down radius joint)...

It's gonna go NUTZ likely, as it's $82 shortly into it's first day of SEVEN...

yeah nutz will probably be the end result
is a nice looking arm though,
thanks for the heads up

sorta makes me want to go look at some of the tts i have stored in the pile
but i really hate to rob a working piece, but that is part of my nuts/nutZ part
