Maybe it's not the best photo, but the cantilever is fully straight. As with all my other cartridges it is clean inside and outside, damper is perfect so the cartridge is plug and play, there's no need for any repair.

Designed by Ikeda, wonderfully musical, the FR mated well with higher mass tonearms.
Despite the age, it nears the listener to the music, letting music to flow in a free way.
Another GREAT performer from the past.
