Presto K8 playback arm/needle
Hello folks,
Anyone know the model# for the Audax playback arm on a Presto K8? Do you know of a place to purchase a needle besides eBay? The numbskull I bought the lathe from had left both needles installed when he shipped it. I have no clue what the playback needle looks like. Really appreciate this site and everyone that participates. Steve Rocks!

At the very least does anyone have a picture of one of theirs?

I think this will for for you if you're playing 78s. You could probably also use a Victrola needle if you were sure to change it after every play.

Thanks Techie. That has helped me narrow it down. I still don't know what it looks like, and I don't want to play 78's. Does anyone think this might work for playback even though it says it for 45 playback? http://www.needles4jukeboxes.com/IMG_4032.JPG

I have a similar machine and arm and I did not have any luck playing vinyl even when using a 45 / lp needle. The arm is heavy - and the vinyl was too fragile. It got destroyed. If you have better luck, let me know.
