Abstract: A magnetic phonograph pick-up cartridge having a fixed assembly portion and a replaceable assembly portion wherein the replaceable portion includes self-contained, longitudinally-extending stylus pole pieces surrounding a pivotally mounted stylus magnet. One end portion of the magnet has a stylus-containing shank connected so that movement of the stylus by a phonograph record groove will cause a related pivotal movement of the magnet. The stylus pole pieces, which could include one or two pole piece pairs, are positioned to define a longitudinally extending pole gap. The magnet has a longitudinal dimension less than that of the pole pieces and is positioned within the pole gap. A resilient collar is attached to the stylus pole pieces and is used to pivotally mount the magnet so that movements of the stylus will alter the magnetic flux coupled from the magnet to the stylus pole pieces.
