*Wanted* Brunswick tone arm and reproducer

Post by Tinkerbell »

I am looking for a good condition Brunswick tone arm and reproducer for my recent Brunswick purchase. My existing pot metal tone arm is being held together by JB Weld and some earlier epoxy. One of the reproducers, (the Pathé one), has a chunk of pot metal missing from the back. The other reproducer has a stripped out needle thumb screw. I can piece meal the items back together, but it is just a temporary fix.

If I had a wish list, it would be in the original gold finish, but I am not fussy.

As my model is apparently so early, it is unlikely I will be able to locate the original tone arm that came with the two separate reproducers, so the tone arm with the Ultona reproducer (either two or three head) will be suitable. Once again, if I had a wish list, the brass Brunswick tone arm would be my preference, but an intact, relatively good condition pot metal one will certainly suffice.

If you have one to offer, or know someone who does, please PM me with your asking price.

I'm posting a pic so you can see what I currently have.

I thank you all for keeping me in mind... whether you have one, or stumble upon one! I'll be camping for the next few days, so if anyone responds and I don't get back, it probably means I'm not home yet!

No way!

I sold that exact same design tonearm and reproducer (top one) on eBay, with good gold plating for $3.00.


Well, at least I know it originally came off a Brunswick. :D

I sold one of those too! :lol:


Some gentleman in Lyon, France bought it.


I HIGHLY recommend Gixen. It's a free eBay sniping service, and it's never let me down. I used to bid on items, but after losing a very special phonograph record, I've used it ever since. HAven't lost a single auction to date. Simply register (eBay username and password) enter the eBay item #, your max bid, and it will bid with 6 seconds left. I bought the "Pro" version I liked it so much, Only $6. Totally worth it in my eyes.


Just make sure you check "stay logged in for a day" on eBay, and sign in within about 12 hours (or less) of it ending. This way, Gixen can do it's thing, without eBay asking it to log in. You'll lose the item, then.

Do you need any other Brunswick parts? I have a whole box of parts off of a Brunswick, as well as other misc. parts. I have a motor as well.
