Who Has Technics Headshell with Azimuth Adjustment?


Something on my wish list is Technics head shell with an azimuth adjustment. I’ve seen some on eBay that claim to be the genuine Technics part:
  “ORGINAL TECHNICS/PANASONIC PART # TPBGA003 ~ ADJUSTABLE AZIMUTH FITS 1200 SERIES” 
So I’m compelled to ask: is it genuine or not?

Perhaps these might be the head shell that comes with the current SL-1200 range. Does anyone know for certain?

Dear @sleepwalker65 : I understand that as possible as you can you want Panasonic/Technics.

All the Technics headshells are around the " mediocrity ", nothing better than that and I'm talking that are not the best match for cartridges and its headshell wires are too on that mediocrity levels.
The only Technics headshell I can recomend ( even that has no azymuth mechanism. ) is the original that came with the EPA 100MK2 tonearm.

If other than stay with " Panasonic " could " move " you as can be the quality level of what you are listening then try to look for other headshells that comes with the Azymuth adjustment that's really critical for quality level performance and if you follow with Panasonic at least change the headshell wires for a better quality ones: this is important/critical too for quality in your listening experiences.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
