Like the PurpleHeart N.S. ( Long Body ), our short body Kiseki PurpleHeart N.S. has been machined out of solid Purpleheart wood, but has now the smaller size ( short body ), like the Kiseki Blue N.S.

The motor is based on the same parts we are using for the other current Kiseki N.S. models.

We have chosen for a Short Body to make it easier to install this cartridge in different tonearms. .
