I just meant in general, not on the vestax. That needle is no ortofon, it'll eat some wax up after a while.

i bought today this thingy: sony ps-jp20.
no pitch
no batteries
no built in speakers
just a 45/33 thing of 28x28 cm!!!!
price..........................8€ (10,5 $)!!!
but it's ok to substitute my broken gemini turntable.
i will use it only to sample
and maybe i will try to study a system to built same battery-thing (nay ideas is wellcome :) ), like that if i have to go to listen to same shop of record this could be better (and with an sp-404...ike this i can sample directly in the shop....ehehehe... 8) )...sorry if someone of you has a record-shop... :D
