These were hand-assembled prototypes for a range of cartridge never imported to the UK. They were used in listening assessments and have had very few hours put on the styli. Body paint finish poorly aged and finger marked; felt-tip marking of channel pins - stylus appears unworn in microscope photographs which can be supplied. Very interesting family of capable magnetic designs - £50 for all three. David

Google is YOUR friendThanks again Al, I did of course try Google first, did you also try before posting that to confirm if there is actually anything about them online? If so I'd be grateful for your findings.

more up to date version of CT300 stylus - plug replacement

some OEM compatible variants on offer - some NOS

as all three styli are effectively new there's a lot of mileage in this trio.

These have now gone to ebay so I am no longer able to offer them separately - bundle price remains however.
