The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Yesterday I was listening to one of my othophonics, when I noticed that there was a definite sound of something sliding around in the soundbox. Every time I raised or lowered the needle I heard a "sliiiide-click". Oddly enough, it didn't affect the sound at all. I ignored it for a few records, but then had to see if there was anything really wrong. I removed the soundbox from the machine, held it up to look at it, and a soft-tone needle fell out.

May all our little fixes be as simple!

Awesome, nice to know there is an easy fix one in a while. Usually the opposite!
