WTB horn elbow for rigid tone arm monarch

Post by rizbone »

Does anyone know if the horn elbow for a rigid tone arm Monarch is reproduced by anyone, or if anyone has an original for sale?

Good luck with that... someone did make some modified elbows from front mount 90 degree elbows, don't know if they still do. I had a rigid arm Monarch some years back with a damaged elbow - it took 15 yrs of searching before I found an original for $500.

Did you find it on ebay? I lost out as underbidder on a nice elbow for just about $500 for my Monarch. Nice ones are hard to find!! Mine is kinda bent and has a split.

No, I missed one on eBay - maybe the same one as you did. I got mine from Len Bilton in Ohio.
