Needles?
I ran out of steel gramophone needles, what is the best place I can get more?
If I were a troll, I would not post on the Talking Machine Forum; I would live under a bridge, post on Reddit, and eat goats for dinner!

Re: Needles?
Mike Child, who sells on eBay as soundgen. He's in England, and sells loud, medium, soft, and extra soft.
His needles are properly tapered, unlike some that are cylindrical until the point forms. The old school needles were always tapered.

Re: Needles?
+1 on the Mike Child, Soundgen recommendation.
Excellent needles with superb quality control.
Good service.
You can order on EBay or directly from him.
