Pete Riggle has been putting his time in Covid-19 quarantine to good use by developing a new "Woody" headshell.

Pete Riggle Audio Engineering "Woody" headshell.

Pete's new "Woody Headshells" are replaceable wood headshells that can be used on "Woody SPU" tonearms like mine, or basically any other arm with an SME type headshell connector, like my Thomas Schick tonearms, for example. 

The Woody Headshells are hand-made by Pete, and finished in French polish (very classy!). Currently the Woody Headshells are available in Spanish cedar or pine, or can be custom ordered with any wood type specified by the customer for an additional charge.

Pete charges $60 USD for his new Woody Headshells in Spanish cedar or pine and the French polish finish.

If you've checked the pricing on premium wooden headshells, like the Yamamoto Sound Craft HS-1A that I have on one of my Schick tonearms, you know $60 USD is a great deal on a custom hand-crafted wood headshell. Plus, as a bonus you get to do business in person with Pete Riggle, which is just cool in itself!

More to come on this developing story.

As always, thanks for stopping by, and may the tone be with you!
