Just to finish this thread, I have now obtained, from A-V-A online, a new stylus, fitted it, and 'bingo' perfect sound. The only other problem was that the cartridge was loose in it's metal mounting clip, cured with a bit of judicious bending, though the Shure Cartridge only has a locating 'pip' at the front. Cartridge and clip are, AFAIK, both original, so, for something over 38 years it's worked the way it is!
