I know this an old topic...but Tonearm for Garrard 301 :)

Building up a Garrard 301.  Plinth is being built by Lee at Acoustand in UK.   

Need a tonearm. Fell in love with the Schick 12", but understand there is a 6+month backlog.  (anyone aware of the actual backlog?)

I'm willing to plunge and wait for the Schick, but would like to know from this fantastic community what I might consider as an alternative with no backlog.

Anyone recommend the new SME's?  

Thanks!! Mike in Houston

I am on similar journey as you and awaiting my plinth from DasAcoustics. I almost went with skeletal plinth. You can look at my Garrard 301 project by clicking the link below and last two thread related to Garrard 301 and Cart/Phono/SUT options.

I am expecting to have my 301 running around Labor Day weekend. You’re welcome to stop by anytime after that!
