old-45-records Informative information and resources on Vintage 45 Record Player

This “needle” is barely passable as an audio stylus. Get the real one. This thing is a tiny little nub of steel (maybe) on the end of cheap, hair-thin rubbery plastic. It is complete crap. I fitted it to my turntable arm, and the stupid “needle” wasn’t even tall enough to keep the arm from scraping on the record. Worthless. Get the more expensive one.

Value Of Vintage Record Player?
I was wondering if anyone had knowledge of such an item that I have. I have a Commodore Transitorized Record Player that plays 45 rpm records Vintage 45 Record Player and is stated to be the world’s smallest record player. The item must be pre 60’s but I cannot find anything on the internet about it. The item is practically mint in its foam box along with the original batteries still wrapped in plastic along with the manual. The Model # is PH-333Anyone know anything about this stuff?Thanks!

    Crosley offers a bundle that comes with three needles and a cleaning kit that’s a much better deal.

    Facts: Relatively new to the vinyl scene.
    Have never purchased a new needle prior to this one.
    Competent enough to be able to read about vinyl and/or needles and learn about them.

    With that out of the way, this needle works. Easy to install and no problems with destruction during delivery. However, at points within the first 20% of every record I play under this needle, the record skips. Perhaps my records are dusty or scratched. Or I simply need to break my new needle in. All I know is that it’s annoying and the original did not have this problem. The other 80% of the record is fine.

    If Crosley needles are not proprietary I would be happy if someone would let me know, until then, here’s to hoping this problem fixes itself.

    Prompt service, item seemed somewhat flimsy, but I’m just a klutz :) Works very well, exactly what I needed. Thank you
