Luckily I bought a NOS discontinued Jelco 250 L 12 inch tonearm with the 2 different counterweights to use it with mono cartridges and low compliance ones for around 500 dlls. I wonder if the remaining stock of Jelcos will go up in price with this unfortunate event.
Jelco tonearms closes
Takako Ichikawa of Ichikawa Jewel Co. (Jelco) announced he is closing the 100 year old company due to the impact of COVID-19 and an aging workforce.
