Have you ever broken the needle?


I just purchased a Wilson Benesch cartridge (used) at a very reduced price. However when mounting this georgeous piece of equipment the pliers slipped when attaching the wires thus pushing the housing into the #$%&%!* needle and snappinig it clean off. Right there my heart quit pumping. Maybe CD's are the best way to go. Tell me your sob story. I need a good laugh.

Hey Cornfedboy, that's just plane uncalled for! He already punished himself. Some of you guys are meaner than I am.

I gotta say I have mounted hundreds of cartridges(truth!) and never broke a single one! And I shake like an old junkie. I was the TT set up guy at several High end stores, I always recomended that the customer not watch, it made them very uncomfortable to say the least. I thought it was fun to see them sweat! Bet that make's ya feel better bozo.

By the way Cornfedboy what to you sugest he use, a monkey wrench? I didn't say a word about your screen name.
