FOUND! Wanted Honest Quaker portable tonearm
Wanted: Does anyone have a tonearm for an Honest Quaker portable phonograph? I would gladly buy a junk phonograph as long as it has a good complete tonearm. Honest quaker was also a phonograph parts supplier; so it may have been sold on other off brand portable. Thanks for your help! PS: I don't need the reproducer; just the tonearm. Thanks again!

Here's another angle of what I'm looking for. Please check your parts stashes to see if you have anything that resembles this.marco wrote: Sun Oct 08, 2023 4:19 pm Wanted: Does anyone have a tonearm for an Honest Quaker portable phonograph?

I have something close, but not knowing any of the dimensions I can't say.

Re: Wanted Honest Quaker portable tonearm
gramophone-georg would you be willing to send me a photo with just the width of the base and length of the tonearm? I can measure my case and will be able to tell right away if it would fit. My phono has no tonearm so I'm willing to try anything close to it for now. Thanks for responding!
