Hey folks, the sweetie and I bought this Zenith console:









The tone arm is labeled as being a Micro Touch 2G

and it says it is a Genuine Diamond Stylus from Zenith.  Can you help us?  We want to play records and I'm not sure if I need a Cartridge or a Needle or both...  Where do we go, what do we do?  

Be smarter than me please.

I take there's no model number or anything on the back that you could look up?

Glad you bought one of these. Awesome.  Yes you need the phono cartridge.  You can get them at amazon.com  This is the one I bought. http://www.amazon.com/Shure-M97xE-High-Performance-Magnetic-Cartridge/dp/B00006I5SB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1248053511&sr=8-1

It is worth it.

All should be universal.  I highly recommend Taj Mahal's Maestro album and The Beatles Live at the BBC album.  As well as Black Joe Lewis < he is from austin.  New Dead Weather is great on vinyl.

On a side note, I love the Zenith machines that were in Public Enemies.  They were amazing.

Yep - you need the whole cartridge with those. As I recall, the stylus is embedded in.

I'm not sure...we might have something like that around, I'll ask Jerry,but can't get back to you till later on that.
Unrelated to the diamond stylus....does this play 78s?
We used to have something like this in our home when I was growing up!
