Hey all. I'm wondering if I'm using the correct Needle for my Rockola 490 (not the 1 or 2).

I picked up a needle from eBay a few years ago. It works, but the player arm seems to sit too close to my records. When playing, the cartridge is just about touching the records, and sometimes it DOES touch the record and you can hear it scraping when the record plays.

Couldn't tell you what needle I am using now because it was so long ago. Anyone know what needle I should be using?

Thanks in advance for the help!!!

If your jukebox has the original cartridge in it (Shure M44), the proper stylus would be the N44, which is available from needles4jukeboxes:

Hi
There are adjustments for tracking using the spring underneath the tone arm and also adjustments for the height of the tone arm above the record
