Elliptical Stylus for Grado Legacy FCE, FTE, FTR, GCE, GTE & GTR series cartridges
Although your legacy Grado cartridge very likely still works and will be restored to like new condition with this new stylus, you may still want to consider a new GRADO cartridge. NOTE: This is a genuine Grado part for newer cartridges *but* has been post factory modified by our senior tech to fit perfectly any Grado cartridge listed. This is to allow customers who don't want to switch cartridges to continue using their old legacy Grado pickup without the needle to re-align, re-wire and reinstall a new cartridge.
SPECIAL NOTE: If you notice a tar-like goo in your cartridge when replacing the needle, leave it in place for proper sound dampening.
