Is there a 3g. anti-skate weight for Graham arms?


Wally M. claimed that the anti-skate weight that comes with the Graham 2.0-2.2 is a bit too heavy at around 6g. He told me that he could get a lighter one from Bob Graham at 3g. Has anyone know if this is true? Wally never sent me my weight. Has anyone found the stock weight to be too heavy, and beyond adjustment?

Sorry!There is no tool from Graham regarding antiskate.But,having set up Grahams,from the 1.5/2.0 to 2.2's(alot) I can state with confidence that you can dismiss any doubts as to the antiskate accuracy of these arms,relating to Graham's instructions,and how they perform in real world conditions.Unless you want to go nuts,and dismantle common sense,in order to find miniscule geometric and technical flaws,which will have no real impact on what you are hearing.Some posters like to do this.I hope you do not.You would be better served listening to your records.

Best!
Please re-read my post. I said nothing about any antiskate inaccuracy of a Graham. My point was that placing the weight at the collar still results in some finite antiskate (by design), and that may have been appropriate for the TT setup done by this professional.

You could benefit from some additional care in your responses. In 2 short posts, you managed to unfairly criticize a known professional, state a tool existed and then retract it, suggest out of the blue that I need a test record (incidentally, I have 2), and suggest I am spending too much time obsessing with TT setup, when I didn't even bring it up, and don't need any help.

Were you having a bad day?
Zargon,firstly I really think you are getting way to carried away in your response to me.I made a general statement about some supposed "professionals" (not alluding to anyone in particular).I've read many posts from owners,and experienced folks who did not fully understand the Graham 2.2.
The measuring device for antiskate,that I mentioned was a simple oversight which I corrected in a followup post.
The business about test records was just some information that I thought some could benefit from knowing about,if not already.I was not alluding specifically to you,so please don't be so self centered!Other folks read this stuff!!

Nothing I posted was specifically directed at you,because from the time I've been corresponding on these forums there has been a wealth of misinformation regarding the Graham arms,by some.
I was simply trying to be helpful,but in all honesty,from your sarcastic tone,I won't make any comments to you again.

As to the antiskate being set at the collar,if your "professional" friend set it that way,FINE!Of course I assume the cartridge was supposed to track at around one gram.Right?
My appology for any unintended sarcasm and getting carried away. Maybe I was having a bad day! This particular cartridge is supposed to track at 1.8g. For that VTF, do you know where would one nominally place the weight as a starting position? Which detent?
Zargon,Why not try the second,and then third dent,out.This should be for 1.5 and 2.0 gms.I believe the little weight has a set screw that may be able to lock to an intermediate position(more approximating the 1.8 gms).I hope this can work out for you,as I,myself track at 1.85 I have sometimes wondered if I should do the same.I'm too lazy I guess.Also,as the record is being tracked,look at the cantilever,from straight on(front of arm).If antiskate is correct,there should be no leaning(drag)of the cantilever in any direction,to a significant degree.Sort of like,if you considered the cantilever and it's reflection,in the lp to be ONE continuous line.Viewed from straight on.Hope this helps.

Best!
