My friend ask me to fix his 46-1209 Philco, the problem that I quickly ran into was the needle in the Dynamic Reproducer was broken, point missing ! The pick-up DOES make noise thru the radio , but the tone arm just floats across the record ! I have included a link to my "Photobucket" album, showing the correct needle #001 , the tone arm does NOT have any guard ,as shown in #02 , without the guard the needle would bend quickly(#02) ! Does anybody have ideas where I could find one or two(maybe a spare) of these phonograph needles, Philco part no. 35-2661 ?
Thanks, Lee Petrie , Joliet, IL. 815-744-1051

Hi Lee

You might try West-Tech Services...I think Gib either has the correct replacement or a suitable substitute?
