    Syanton str8 150 mk2 tone arm issue.

    Hi people.

    So I recently purchased a pair of stanton st 150 mk2 ( one st one str8)
    Shortly after receiving them via courier I noticed the tonearm on the str8 has tension while swinging left and right.
    Apon further inspection I noticed the tone arm gimbal looks almost squashed compared to the deck with the S tone arm.
    I spoke to the seller and he said he was told that because its a scratch deck its setup differently.

    After some back and forth with pictures he's agreed it been damaged in transit.

    So basically what I'm inquiring is wether the tonearm assembly is repairable or if anyone has links to a replacement S shape or straight?

    I've included pics of damaged tone are gimbal. Any advice would be most appreciated.

    Tough to find parts for those. Looks like they used to be pretty readily available. I would keep your eyes on ebay or maybe look for a donor turntable.
