“This is a finely engineered piece of gear. It gives all 3 common alignment choices, measures pivot to spindle distance (most helpful if you are mounting a separate tonearm on a table), and is easy to use. One star off - I would highly recommend that Feickert make this gauge white with black lines. The black plate makes it very difficult to accurately see the stylus. Also, I'm not sure if using their overhang measurement for all cartridges is accurate. I use a Technics SL1200Mk2 turntable, and there is a significant difference in overhang using the Feickert than when using the Technics own overhang gauge.”

“Nicely made, for sure. Some calibration lines on the unit are meant to be color-coded, I think, but they are not, so this is a potential source of confusion. The explanation is included on a loose sheet of paper supplied with the unit as a sort of erratum, so the main instruction book will need updating sometime to make this clearer.”

“This protractor is well made and will last a lifetime. Quite easy to understand and use. Helpful white on black alignment markings. Just get one.”
