Is my stylus damaged ?


Hi folks,

I was recently given for free a Technics SL3300 turntable that comes with a Sgure MG44X cartdrige.
I bought a cheap N35X stylus.

As this is an automatic turntable, something is happening and three times the tonearm as slide to the center of the record, I have not tried to play records till I send the turntable for calibration and adjustments.

At first sight the stylus shows no damage and looks still aligned and not ''twisted''.

Should I buy a new one ?

PS: I'm on a very tight budget.

Thanks !

If it looks OK w a magnifier that it probably is. since your budget is tight, I would give it a try one you get the unit back from repair.
