WANTED--Talk-O-Phone needle set screw

Post by jboger »

I suppose this will be hard to find but here goes: I have a perfectly good Talk-O-Phone reproducer sans the needle set screw. If you have one you're willing to part with, then I'm interested. If you like, just PM me. Thank you.

I may have one but It's probably a repo.

Thanks for your response. It doesn't bother me if such a small part is a repro. Do you in fact know that it screws easily into a Talk-O-Phone reproducer? I have a second, complete reproducer. I wanted to check the threads of the one illustrated in this post. So I took the screw from the other and put it into this one (the one missing the screw). It tightened down very nicely. So if you know that your repro screw makes a proper fit, I may be interested.

Sorry John I completely forgot. I've got an early long throat and some repo screws of various sizes. I'll try to see if the ones I have will fit.

I have one that works with the reproducer that is pictured.
It's a repro and pretty sure I got it from Brian at the phonograph shop.
It's smaller in diameter than the exhibition and has more threads per inch.

yes, Virginia, there is a . . . .

Still hoping. Anyway, I cleaned up the reproducer so now you can compare the old, as-found reproducer with the now-rebuilt reproducer still ans that needle screw.
