Total weight including stylus and cartridge leads ~21-22g, it just about scrapes into being acceptable with respects to cartridge compliance and resonance.

I have no idea how it sounds. I'm still waiting for a new stylus and cartridge leads.

Here's the stylus I bought

There are many replacement outer bodies for this cartridge made from lots of exotic wood. It might be a good idea to check some of the damping values at this website

Should be fun!
Interesting stuff, Andy. Thanks for the links. I bet you're dying to hear how it sounds now

Enjoy the Jico, but as a contrast [even if simply for education purposes] I'd urge you to source a NOS [with white writing on the front] Shure stylus for your SC35C, as I think you'd be shocked and stunned at just how good it is!
