I gave this same answer to your post on Facebook: It looks like the cable connected to the GE cartridge is a simple patch cord, not a shielded pickup cord.
Ah, yes, David has better eyes than I did on this. Proper shielding and grounding is very important with the wiring for phono cartridges, especially for magnetic cartridges, which the GE is!
