A must-have accessory for the vinylphile

The Shure SFG-2 Tracking Force Gauge is a well-made precision device that gives you an accurate reading (within a 10th of a gram) of your tracking force. Even if you have a tonearm with a tracking force scale on the counterweight, this provides a much more accurate way of knowing exactly how much force is being exerted on your precious records.

The range of this gauge is any weight up to 3 grams. Unless you have a prehistoric phono cartridge (which you need to stop using!), or are using a specialty cartridge made for listening to 78s, it should fit the bill nicely.

The black body of the unit is made from a precision heavy plastic material that is extremely durable. The weight scale is metal. There is also a mirror with two white pointers. When the two pointers are aligned, the tracking force is indicated by the position of the sliding weight on the scale. It's packaged nicely with easy to follow instructions on it's use.

Some pricier digital scales are probably a bit more accurate, but when you get down to accuracy of 1/10th gram, that's splitting hairs. A highly recommended accessory for any vinyl lover.

Worked very well for setting up my turntable. Easy to use and to read the scale.

Nice product. Simple balance-beam construction and clear instructions. Should be all that the majority of vinyl fans need.

The Shure SFG-2 Stylus Tracking Force Gauge is a simple-to-use measuring device that has become the industry standard. The device was developed to give listeners a way to insure against problems caused by improper tracking force settings, including mistracking, excessive record and tip wear, and poor sound reproduction. This gauge is a highly accurate beam balance instrument, designed to measure the actual downward force exerted by a stylus on a record over the range of 0.5 to 3.0 grams. Each gauge is individually calibrated, and displays readings in 0.05 gram increments, in order to provide a precise measurement of stylus tracking force. If you're one of the few, the proud, the cogniscenti who know analog still rules the audio kingdom, the SFG-2 is a tool you must have!
