Headshell weight - Sumiko HS-12 vs Technics

How much more does the Sumiko HS-12 weigh over the stock Technics SL-3200 headshell?
Will I need to add an auxiliary counterweight to my tone arm if I use the Sumiko HS-12 with a cartridge that weighs 5 grams? If so, where can I buy an auxiliary weight for my turntable?
Thanks!

Hello...

Found this info on another website. The Sumiko HS-12 adds another 7 grams mass to the tonearm.

As for the auxillary tonearm weight, check with KAB USA,
http://www.kabusa.com They list the aux weight for the SL-1200 series for USD $4.95.

Hope this helps.
