In Reply to: If it's not conical, alignment of the stylus to the cantilever to the generator matters much more. posted by Timbo in Oz on February 1, 2016 at 16:36:46:
What IS the Micro Scanner cut like? Is it just a renaming of the Namiki MicroLine (or subtle variation thereof) or a proprietary cut? I contacted Garrott Bros for details when I was considering them for retipping, but they weren't forthcoming.... They offer a FGS too which is quite appealing but rather expensive by the time the surcharges are applied for cantilevers etc.
I'm gathering up candidates for retipping now, but am thinking a Paratrace from Expert Stylus is possibly the way to go. My understanding is that the Paratrace is *similar to* if not the same as a VdH Type II (I think..)
