Daddy Needs a New Stylus

[timbre4]

Well it finally happened; my SL1800 TT was used in some bizarre physics experiment. Actually my youngest, being unfamiliar with vinyl and related playback gear, found out how fragile they can be.

Life goes on.....eventually.

Any help in locating a stylus for my (Radio Shack version) Shure Type IV phono cartridge? Who among you snapped up any of the spares when these went clearance 6-7 years ago? eh? fess up please

Thanks in advance for any info!

I've always had good luck ordering a replacement stylus from Radio Shack. In fact, I was able to get a stylus for a Webcor unit that played 78s and 33s, the stylus # was 1, the guy who ordered it said it was the oldest needle they listed. Recently they were able to locate an ancient Grado stylus for me. Of course in Jersey things may be different.

Thanks, I'll give them a try.
