Gramophone info/parts needed
Posted: Sun Aug 27, 2017 11:05 am
Hello all,
I saw this little guy posted locally. I was excited to see it as it was 4 minutes from my house but when I got there I saw the mess..
The unit is an Alba Gramophone but thats all I know... Mine unfortunately was stripped, polyurethaned, grill was tossed out, and parts were lost like the bottom knobs and whole tonearm assembly. The main spring is shot too. lol
I don't know why I bought it but I did...
I am looking for any tonearm and reproducer that will work. How do I measure for one? I was told that I had to measure from the center of the spindle to the center of the tonearm hole. That measurement is 8". I want to start looking on eBay and other places but I don't know what to look for. Any help finding one here or some info so I can look elsewhere would be really appreciated...
Thanks,
Kirk
