    Default Cartridge Man Music Maker 3

    For sale is a Cartridge Man Music Maker 3

    I bought this new and it has been carefully used, mounted solely on an Airtangent air-bearing tonearm on my Garrard 401. I estimate that it has seen about 350 hours use, so it is less than half worn. These cartridges track at 1.5g and stylus wear is very slow.

    I recently upgraded to a Music Master cartridge which I bought ex-dem without trade in.

    The current price of a Music Maker 3 is £750 and this has a £250 trade in value against a new Music Maker.
    Included in the sale is the Cartridge Man Isolater which is a £90 option.

    I realise buying a used cartridge could be seen as a bit of a gamble, so I'm happy for this to be picked up and tested on my turntable. A cup of tea and biscuits included.
    I live in Wirral (Merseyside).
    Price is £175 including postage.

    I think this might just about be my desert island cartridge. With a TP4 only deck at the moment but I’d have your arm off otherwise, very keen pricing.

    Oh my ! As a long term user of both the cartridge man Music Maker 3 and the Music Master, this is an incredible bargain.
    A wonderfully balanced classy performer. A serious bargain.
    If I didn’t already have the Music Master, I’d bite your arm off at that price.

    an Airtangent air-bearing tonearm on my Garrard 401


    that's not a combo I've come across before.
    How about starting a thread in the Gallery section of the forum with some system photos. I'm sure a lot of folks would be interested.

    ... and glws.

    If I didn’t think it would be overkill on my SL1200 MkII I’d bite your arm off too!

    I don’t think David has any arms left. Maybe a leg? Unless you’ve eaten already, then perhaps a foot?
