Make sure the screw slots on the headshell are long enough for the Baerwald protractor alignment.
Going to have it pre-aligned via the online vendor I'm going with (most likely Needle Doctor), as they sell cart-and-shell packages that are ready to twist onto an arm and have tracking force set...
If any adjustments are required after that point, I'll worry about it then; the main issue was getting rid of (or cutting down on) severe IGD I'm experiencing (the jury is still out on whether this is damage caused by previous misuse on the second-hand LPs or by mistracking styli that may have carved up those inner grooves in past plays; what bothers me is that it occurs on a lot of BRAND NEW vinyl, as well...I'm hoping the 440 or its equivalent is the answer).
