Thanks Mike. The tonearm height issue only applies to SL-1200 users who have the standard platter and mat, so this is a useful tip.

Giving it some thought it would also be possible for people to use it who still have the old bearing. Although I would think it would be something of a hollow exercise; fitting high quality arms and using only the stock bearing.

I have just 4 black and 6 natural alloy collars left. I am going away for 6 months in a few weeks, so if anyone is interested, please let me know as soon as possible.
Many thanks
My collars arrived in the mail today. They appear to be very well made. After I get these installed I think I'll spin some jazz and enjoy a dram of good single malt (probably Ardbeg Uigeadail)
Many thanks Hugo.

Hi Hugo,
Just got mine. Looks really nice. Just one small issue - the screws were to close to the Collar and, thanks to Russian post I believe, one of the screws left a strong scratches on the Collar from the bottom side of the hole. I had to correct it. Not a big issue, but I would recommend you to pack it separately.![]()
