RE: Stanton/Pickering

Happy New Year to you too!
Vickers used to offer an "upgrade" service to convert an existing high impedance body. I don't know whether they simply swapped out the body or genuinely replaced the coils.
Good luck!
BTW how did your P-mount cartridges work out? Were the tips well aligned? If so, you are a very lucky chap! My success rate with eBay scored Stanton/Pickering has been VERY poor indeed. I'm astonished at how bad the alignment is in some cases and I understand why they are turning up as "NOS" as they were probably store returns from unhappy customers back in the day. I had one stylus that was skewed by about 3 degrees!!
