Grace F-9 stylus/cantilever repair options

Just curious, Redd House what did you end up doing?
I had Joseph do the retip. He was going to replace the diamond only with the same OEM diamond that was new or had very low hours on it that a client wanted replaced with ruby. Unfortunately, the diamond popped out of his tweezers never to be seen again so he hooked me up with a Ogura PE instead. On the positive side, it’s the same dimension for the tracing edges and the Ogura is a Vital, so 1/2 the mass. It’s a better diamond per Joseph. It's been wonderful but when I wear it out I'll try the ML option.

I’m using the RS-9EB, the lowest cost replacement stylus that Soundsmith offers and it sounds wonderful. Bought a couple of them as they are supposedly limited.
