BIGGER stupid question...(I will NOT be out done!)
;)
Hey guys...good news I just got my first turn table in years. Its a Tech. 1700 mk II. It also came with a Shure Cart. (V15 Type IV) but it needs a needle. Also it came w/ a Stanton cart (GII RW or something like that?) also needing a new needle. I looked online and a found new stylus but do I need to by a new stylus or can I just get needles for the above and if so where and how. Sorry for such lame questions but the last time I owned a TT was in the military and used it for a drinking partner and never replaced anything on it besides the records ;) Anyone know where I can get one and how the heck to put the new one in? I'm really looking forward pulling all my old LP's out and any help would be great!! The first box I pulled out I found 4 or 5 Zapper LP's, The Cars, The Whos' Live at Leeds, lots of new-way stuff, Joe Jacksons "Look Sharp" some Zep, Sabbath, the list goes on and on...I can't wait!! ok nuff for now thanks again Peace, Pogue
Believe it or not, try Radio Shack.
Just bring the head assembly down and get one of the guys who seems to be somewhat alerrt to look it up. They have an amazing on-line resource for these kinda things. I know, I worked for them full time and part time on and off over a 35 year period (even before they were Radio Shack).
