Do SME V's come with detchable head shell?

Hi there, I am considering to buy an SME V from some guy in England but his pictures show the SME V w/o a headshell. The tone arm is supposed to be brand new in the box but I thought that these are not removable on the SME V so can anyone enlighten me on what is going on here?

Thanks guys

Dear friends: The SME V or IV comes with non-removable headshell but the 300 series come wwith removable headshell, but there are ddifferences in the quality sound reproduction between the V/IV and the 300 series.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Dear Tim: Interesting that the V comes now with removable headshell, I can't find in the SME website.

Anyway, for my point of view this new V really is not a V because the " unique " V characteristic is that is build from one piece. I don't want to argue about but it seems to me different than the original/always V.

Regards and enjoy the music.
