Bent Stylus....what to do?

david: your post led me to the grado website. i hadn't known before today that john grado took over the reins of the company from his uncle joseph. i've neither met nor spoken to john grado, but if he's anything like joseph, he must be a true gentleman. thank you for teaching me something about our mutually-loved industry. -kelly

Kelly,thanks for the kind words.Im not sure if its common knowledge,but Joe invented the MC cartridge and either holds or held the patent on it.Just wondering if anyone knows why he never put out a MC cartridge himself but chose a moving iron design instead .No life lines allowed!

David, I'm dying to know the answer. Please enlighten us.

Pertikcs,I dont know the answer,I was wondering also.

I'd not take a chance with a bent stylus. Back in college days, I ruined some good LPs by playing them on a damaged stylus. Replacing the LPs cost much more than replacing the stylus, and some were out of print
Don't take. a chance with your LPs.
