Jelco

Jelco (Ichikawa Jewel Co., LTD) was started in 1920 by Y. Ichikawa. Originally set up to manufacture jewel bearings for watches and measuring equipment, they branched out to creating diamond tipped styli for use in the Hi-Fi industry in 1958.

Jelco is now one of the few remaining tonearm manufactures left in Japan and they utilise their 'Zero Friction Technology' for exceptional musical reproduction.
