Many Thanks Damian, I had a look and the arm they are selling and its the original low mass 774 with SME mount, which they are claiming was made in Japan?
For the Mission 775 LC turntable I need the Jelco arm with a Linn type arm mount.
Thanks for your help though, Aaron.

I'm sure i saw a '774LC' on E-Bay today!

Thanks Ron, Yes this is the Mission badged, Jelco manufactured arm.
The website does not give a price! I have sent them an e-mail, but get the impression they will want top dollar.

I thought the later Mission 774 was a Jelco 250 with a different badge.

Well, wait and see what they are asking for it - I haven't seen anything to compare it with so couldn't say. However, I have dealt with Simon on many occasions and have always struck a sensible deal and trust the quality of his items for sale and warranty statement completely.

I've no idea what it was but it was just a budget arm hence the "LC" = Low Cost. Alvin Gold reviewed it in Hi Fi Answers. Don't think he thought it anything special.
