Need help with a Philco Console I got at a Garage sale
#1

I just picked up a Philco console stereo at a garage sale for $15
It works just fine and just needs some refinishing.

Only problem is it doesn't have a needle in the record player and I don't know which one I need for a replacement.

I have attached some pictures of the end of the record player arm along with the record player(still has the packaging on it) and a picture of the total radio.

Does anyone know what needle this takes and where I could find some to buy online?

Thanks for your help

Hello, yes, that is much newer than what most of us have here. BUT....

1. Check eBay for what you are looking for.

2. Google what you are looking for, some dedicated audio-phile sites should pop up that may have what you are looking for.

Too new but, kinda looks like a VOM changer. Give this website a try.
