Is it possible to replace a record player needle if the needle is broken?|108821

It_s a BSR McDonald circa 1970 and id hate to see it go to waste.

A little trick to some of these older machines is in the arm there is a compartment for extra needles to be stored. These older models would come with one or two extra needles. So if no one had taken these needles out there should be one there, if that is this is the model that has this!
No do not let it go to waste, heck if you were in my area I would LOVE to have such a machine for our thousands of vinyl records we have!

Yes, you can replace your needle. See the following source:

Yes, but you may need to do a little hunting around for one... Try checking Amazon or any of the home entertainment stores (Circuit City, etc).

Yes. go to a specialist old (vinyl) record store they should be able to point you in the right direction. I_m sure I_m not the only one who thinks that old fashioned vinyl sounds much better than remastered cd, crackles and all!.

If you can find a needle I_m sure you can.

yes, but needles are expensive. Your best bet is to buy a new record player at good will for 5-10 bucks and put it_s needle in your record player. It also gives you replacement parts. pull out the needle with a pair of pliers and use a pair of tweezers and some super glue to replace the needle.
