WANTED: Columbia BO Part

Post by zapper »

Hi
I am looking for the cranked tonearm section which connects to the reproducer on the Columbia BO. Similar to the photo. Can anyone help with this or put me onto part.
Thanks Brian

That piece is also used on the BFT, BGT, & BQ so you can widen your search requests. Also the reproducer for the BO & BQ has a shorter horn connector then the "normal" Lyric reproducer.

I have made several of these using the U from a Victor tonearm mitered and soldered to ½" brass tubing, mainly because they are next to impossible to find by themselves...
