This Graham Phantom II B-44 Supreme tonearm, 9", has an SME mount and includes a second removable armwand (the original user used it for a mono cartridge to supplement the primary armwand's stereo cartridge). I purchased it from him, but didn't realize that the mounting was incompatible with my table, so I have not used it (yes, my stupid mistake).
I have only unpacked it enough to see that the base was an SME mount and to take the pictures included with this ad. I could not mount it on my table, so did not use it, and the armwands and other materials were not unpacked as per the photos.
It is in excellent condition, I have seen no flaws, but am giving it a lower rating just because I cannot be sure that I missed something. The previous owner purchased the tonearm and extra armwand new in 2011 and used it until 2014. The arm was used "probably 600-700 hours, but definitely not more than 1000 hours" -- he didn't keep detailed records.
The original / previous owner stopped using the arm because he started his own audio company, Audio Philosophy, and found that he was using the arms he was selling and just wasn't using his own system enough to justify keeping it. He's willing to answer questions about the arm, and you can either look him up or ask me for his contact information. As I've not used it and he has, he can provide operational and other pragmatic information that I can't.
I've listed the original price as $6,300 based on my understanding of the original price ($5,499 for the tonearm, $800 for the extra armwand [which may have cost more]).
It is packed with original packaging and all original paperwork and materials. For shipping, everything is in a strong and well packed outer box, just as I received it.
