Maybe this was asked before...a LOT of old topics and so little time to read them. But is there a difference between a white and a blue stylus? (Remember I'm talking about the STYLUS here, NOT the disc, so please don't tell me, "well the white one's mono and the blue one's stereo" - I've seen both mono and stereo players with white and blue styli). And what about styli that have an "R" stamped on the top? Does that indicate replacement, or what?

There are some minor exceptions, but the white cartridges are using a natural diamond tip and the blue cartridges use a man-made diamond tip. The shape of the body of the diamond is slightly different between natural and man-made but the performance of both these cartridges are identical.
You did n't ask about the green cartridges ?

The CEDatum cartridge rebuild service uses a natural diamond.

Green stylus? Now there's something I haven't seen! By the way, how much do you all charge to refurbish a stylus? I have one where the magnet came out - I still have the little magnet - can you all reinstall those?

We rebuild the 149000 and 154100 RCA cartridges. Also the Hitachi cartridge. Just e-mail us for details. CEDatum@ccrtc.com. Lost a magnet - yes, we can re-install the magnet unless the aluminum tube is bent , then we will install a new tube and magnet.
