I had a Schick tonearm for a few years on 2 different tables, a Thorens TD124 and a Rek-O-Kut L34, as good as it worked with an upgraded Denon 103 cartridge, I could never get rid of a small amount of hum. Even after rewiring and different mounting configurations and different headshells, the hum was always there. I sold it and bought a 12" Jelco, dead quiet-finally!

I know they are a nice arm, but waiting months and months for an arm to get built can get frustrating. I had the same experience with another well known custom arm builder, after the completion date kept getting pushed back, I requested a refund.
