    Default Wanted: Sony SH-151 Headshell

    I know this is a long shot, and I'm rather desperate but does anyone have an SH-151 headshell, as fitted to the following TT's:

    Sony PS-FL1
    Sony PS-FL3
    Sony PS-FL5
    Sony PS-LX2
    Sony PS-LX3
    Sony PS-LX4
    Sony PS-LX5
    Sony PS-LX7
    Sony PS-LX22
    Sony PS-LX33
    Sony PS-T22
    Sony PS-T33
    Sony PS-X45
    Sony PS-X55
    Sony PS-X500
    Sony PS-X600

    Or, does anyone have one of these TT's with a headshell for spares/repair ?

    I acquired a PS-x600 earlier this year so did a bit of research in case I want to get another headshell for what are very nice decks. There are 2 that should be compatible either the aluminium SH-151, or the plastic SH-94. Out of the decks you list some may have come with the SH-94.

    I do see some of the listed decks come up quite cheap on ebay but I don't want a second badly enough to go down the spares and repair route though that may be cheaper than importing from turntableneedles.

    Thanks Clive - I'll keep my eyes peeled. I am hoping to have the Sony fettled in time for Harrogate, so I'm exploring all avenues.

    I have a complete PS-T33 with headshell and original cartridge.
    It runs but speed wasn't stable last time I tried it. Lid is scratched but otherwise looks ok.
    £30 if you come and collect (Bicester).

    Thanks Geoff - is it the headsshell that allows cart swopping (like the picture above)

    Hope you get fixed up - coincidence, I recently bought a PS-X600 and have this day travelled up to Bradford to collect a faulty PS-T33 for the same reason. Now listening to an ADC XLM fitted in it.
