The N-72 stylus performs well with its polished 0.7 mil conical diamond tip while providing the user with long playing life and accuracy. Beware of counterfeits! There is only one Jico distributor in the US, Canada and all of the Americas: LP Tunes. A Jico stylus comes in Jico packaging or with Jico US engraved on the stylus. All others are selling styli of unknown origin and quality. Contact us to verify the authenticity of the claimed Jico stylus before buying. Color may vary.
