Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

You can get some lead fishing weights at the sporting goods store.

Then add some weight to the light counterweight to see if moving the counterweight closer to the pivot provides better tracking ability.

I think someone changed weights to balance a very light cartridge like the more modern Ortofons that are 4-5.5 grams.

This is neither good nor bad. But in my experience putting the counterweight closer to the pivot improves tracking a great deal.

Cheers!

This arm does have a detachable headshell? Or did the 3012 come with an "improved" version headshell like the Series II Improved 3009 model?
