Goldring 1012GX stylus question


Is the stylus of a Goldring 1012GX (not sure of the "GX" but "1012" should identify it) cartridge user-replaceable? A dealer in San Diego told a friend of mine No, while I've seen Audiogon "For Sale" ads that imply Yes. I'd be grateful to anyone who can give me a definitive answer.
Thanks in advance!

...and it's very easy to do.

Give NeedleDoctor.com a call. I had to replace the stylus on my Goldring cartridge (same one as yours), and at the time NeedleDoctor was selling the 1012GX stylus at pre-price increase prices. I think I got mine for $109.00. They may be going for as much as $160.00 now. I can't remember for sure.
