Columbia AR tonearm
Hello. I have a Columbia AR disc phonograph.What is the length of the Columbia tonearm that goes with this phonograph? I know it takes a 30 inch or 36 inch aluminum horn do I am unsure what the length of the tonearm would be. Thank you.

Mine has 30" brass horn, arm is 20" long measured from center of reproducer hole to center of the pivot.
I've used the arm with a 36" aluminum horn, it works but is extremely light on tracking.
