Pros & Cons
Pros
Headshell for the technics sl1200 mk2 turntable. Easy to assemble with almost any cartridge. Works great on my technics sl-210.
A superb removable headshell. Works well and lasts for a while! Ordered this as a backup headshell.
Quality is top notch, no issues whatsoever. This is a little heavier than my last one, so i had to adjust the weight thing to compensate for that.
Although pricey, this headshell appears to be an oem unit. Bought to replace an old one that got messed up by transportation.
Cons
The headshell needs some internal grounding to work with that turntable, which this model doesn't have. Highly suspicious and likely a counterfeit panasonic part.

Played with the headshell and everything is so much more musical
Original part specifically designed for the sl1200

This oem part was well packed shipped fast great price
Packaging/appearance
Item came sealed in box and then the headshell was sealed in plastic wrap very nice
I was worried it was just the headshell w no wires
Competitiveness
I bought this to replace some old headshell that wasnt a technics brand
Perfect replacement for my aging sl1200 headshell
If you need a headshell for your 1980s technics look no further
Workssounds great otherwise though and i think this is more of a table problem than a headshell problem
