Do Tonearms need servicing

As for this thread, this type of information supply is moving away from the OP's initial inquiry.

we ask for opinions on fruit and we end up discussing sowing.  LOL

Not if you don't abuse it and it is a good design.

Dear @best-groove : I told something similar rigth from my second post due that a gentleman started to speaks something related but not the OP subject.
In other side, if you don't like what you read in any thread well just don't read it, fortunatelly this is a free world.

@pindac thank's for the link.

at all, I find it all very funny.

@best-groove,

'at all, I find it all very funny.'

It's part and parcel of being an audiophile. That's why I think some of the funniest posts are the ones we can see something of ourselves in.

Anyway the balance of opinion, excepting a possible online discussion of cables which the OP seems to be considering, is that unless something is obviously wrong, tonearms (even those of a certain vintage) don't particularly need refurbishing.

Kind of reassuring.
