How to fix record player needle?

Question

how to fix record player needle? is there any thing i can substitute for the needle?

Answer 1

The only players that use  needles are usually old . The ones since 1970 or so all use a "Stylus" . You can Google cartridge stylus and find a seller of cartridges , styluses and even needles .

Answer 2

There aren't many substitutes depending on the make /model for a needle. (unless you have a Victrola from grandpa's days)

You haven't described what needs fixing (stylus bent, tip worn down,wire disconnected from cartridge) or what type of cartridge/styus you have.

In most cases you will need either a new styus or new cartridge and stylus.

Answer 3

i tried doing that and i gave up.

went to sears and bought a new record player and it works perfectly!

best to buy a new one now before they all sell out and they never make another record player needle again.
