I used a 103R on my Well Tempered Record Player arm, very similar to your Classic arm. I used the alternative mounting method as outlined in Bill Firebaugh's original instructions (contact me via email if you need them); one mounting screw directly through the slot on the arm. That was the only way I could get the mounting tight enough, which I found to be critical with the 103R. My fingerlift was soft alloy and the mounting screw stripped right out with minimal torque. The open mounting holes of the 103R made mounting difficult but not impossible.
Even with good solid mounting and a full reservoir of damping silicone, I found the 103R to be a poor match with the WT arm; fuzzy imaging and untameable inner groove distortion. Perhaps low compliance cartridges just need a fixed bearing arm.
