All needle (stylus) is absolutely new. Needle (stylus) were made in Russia during Soviet times, designed for cutting fluorography film and the thin blue film, so-called flexible vinyl discs. Needle (stylus) suitable for most mono cutting heads. Warning: Do not connect the wire heating, necessary to heat the halogen lamp directly recordable disc !!!

Needle (stylus) were not tested, there was no opportunity to do this, you need to experiment!
Postage is fixed 7$ , regardless of the number of needles 1 or 100 pc.
Sale needle (stylus), carried out only through PayPal. If you want to purchase stylus, write to e-mail info@vinylium.ru or private message.
1 needle worth 15$ pc.

Selling on ebey, will be carried out later,
at the moment they do not give sell more than 10 pcs., in a month, I solve this problem.

You can use any, but it is better to use №1 or №2. If you have an old the needle, compare the size, it will be more reliable)))

I had a great transaction through eBay with alexstation. Ordered two styli November 24th and they arrived December 6th. Tracking in Russia was provided. Styli were well packed and I received what I ordered. I have on older micro sapphire that came with my K10 as well as an old steel needle I'll take a few pics of once I get them all rounded up so folks can see how they compare.

A few pics (my camera isn't the best). The stylus on the left or bottom is a microgroove that came with my K10, the other two I purchased from alexstation. Definitely look like standard groove styli.

I wonder if you had a microscope camera, that could take a good picture of the needle....
Someone should make those to sell ... I don't even have one ..

Yes, that's a must better description. The ones I bought from alexstation are the size of the old steel styli I've been using to practice with recently, 78RPM groove.

Thats something else, I don't think I've ever seen standard groove stylus before.

SC99, this stereo head, she works 320 stylus! all the stylus work only mono cutting heads. Needle must approach to all the Presto head, but better to compare the size of your needles, granted on the size of
photos, it will be more reliable

These styli are not microgroove. So, really, not functional at all for doing anything more than lower quality mono cuts. High frequency information can literally be sliced off by the back angle of this stylus. There is a paper about it in the AES. And, yes, none of these styli have the 1:20 taper required for Neumann, Vinylium, Caruso, Vinyl Recorder or my Project Bladerunner.

that all being said, I'm interested to see what they'll do for the embossing/impressing technique.
