"Love watching it destroy new records" FTFY.

I don’t even wanna know what a new needle for this costs. Can you even get one? Or do you just let the old ass needle shred your records?

There are plenty of new needles.

Where are you going to find a new record that spins at 78 rpm?

Why the fuc% would this not have sound.

Yeah I was hoping for sound as well.

Does it play modern LPs?
Fine_Engineering5971 OP t1_j7ijn7c wrote
No. The grooves are too narrow. You can manage to get some “music” out of it but the record will be destroyed in the process.

Yes but how many old needles?
Fine_Engineering5971 OP t1_j7ip5bg wrote
A lot actually. You can look it up on eBay.

He probably doesn't even know the difference between shellac and vinyl.

Mine was stolen years ago... can't forget

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's quite hypnotizing to watch the turntable spin.

The needles are very cheap. They have to be. They're only good for one play. You buy them in bulk.

Interesting. Guess that’s just what you did in the days before cartridges
