I do know there are people,like West-Tech,Larry at the site I linked to,and a couple others,who can retrofitthe old ceramic cartridges with more modern needles.

I'm leaning toward putting in a cartridge with a .5 mil point. That should protect the .5 mil grooves from being damaged by the device's usual 1 mil stylus and allow ok if not ideal sound from the older records. It will also cancel all vertical noise. .." I sure wouldn't play any valuable 45s on one of those because of the arm design. A smaller stylus really won't offer better protection.
