Yeah, they can be non-commital about this sometimes. But when I bought my Master.......

the guy who distributed the Morch arm at the time told me to use Morch's 6g eff. mass yellow arm tube (which I already owned) with it. I did but didn't think I was getting all I should from the cart, so I called Grado. They told me what I said in my post, and I bought the heavier blue arm tube.

Dunno if its the case, but its possible that because the Grado designer I spoke to knew I was a long-time Grado user who'd already bought the Master he was more willing to be specific. Gotta wonder if Grado is purposely vague in order not to discourage people with lighter arms from spending money on a wood body.

The Master does track and sound better with my heavier arm tube to my ears. I was having some problems with the "Grado dance" when I had it on the lighter yellow arm tube. Those problems went away when I switched to the heavier arm tube.
