Hey guys. I just made Denon DL-103 in an Ebony body and convert the coil for Mono LP. I posted a recording and few pictures on my Facebook page. The cartridge is phenomenal for the mono records and very easy to listen to without it getting boring. 
If anyone is interested in redoing their 103 body when the retip their cartridge with me, please don't hesitate to ask. If you are a lover Mono LPs and are looking for an affordable Mono MC cartridge to play around with or try out, this is a very fun cartridge to listen to.

Steve made me a special custom low output (0.40mv) cartridge with a micro-ridge stylus.  It sounds fabulous and is one of the best bargains around.  I then damaged the cartridge when trying to mount it on a different table, by touching the tiny wires in the open body, resulting in one channel going out.  Steve repaired it for me and even put additional wooden side protectors to preempt by butterfingers doing it again, for free.  So impressed, I sent a stock DL-103 to him for an open body conversion; his price for the job was about the same as what it would cost for a wooden body on eBay.  The man is a genius and his services are super affordable.
Steven is a paragon of integrity. I contacted him to fix my Sumiko Blackbird about a month ago. Elsewhere, I have been quoted $1,000 for the retipping. His quote was almost a quarter of that amount. He called me to offer his own cart VAS Nova as a replacement. I had no use for the dull Blackbird anymore (who would pay the grand if a new Blackbird cots just a measly $200 more?). He ships his Nova to me. It gets lost in shipment (USPS refuses to acknowledge it is lost, it simply says "out for delivery" for a month). A less honest seller would have said tough luck, I spent my time and my parts, not my fault USPS lost it. But Steven promptly created a new cartridge and shipped it again at his expense. It is being broken in , but I already hear details I have not heard before even with the $1,200 Sumiko Blackbird. 
Outstanding seller!
 Will never buy or repair a cartridge anywhere else.

Steve did an outstanding job retipping an old Linn Troika a few years ago for me.  I sent it to him and received it back and mounted in less than a week. I highly recommend his services.
@Vasaudio; I see in this thread that you have convert  a Denon 103 to mono cartridges.  I have a Grado Master Reference cartridge with one dead channel, I wonder if that could be converted into a mono cartridge. Would it be a good move cost wise?
