[Jukebox-list] Vern's Seeburg Cartridge

[Ron Rich]

Hi Norman,
  Like I said--my scale is a Postal Scale, and designed to "round up" the numbers. So if one shows as 10g, on that scale it, could be as low as 9.1g, but not higher then 10g, as the PO would charge the same price for anything within that range.
  If you have a chance, shot me a pix. (ronnnrich at yayoo.com ) Ron Rich.

  Hi Ron,
I have spoken to Vern, he said his cartridge is midway in weight between the 345-03D and the redhead?

I'm sorry I confused you - what I meant to say is that because the 345-03D is bust in half and because it is a stereo showcase type cartridge moulded into a mono type enclosure - that two of the pins on the stereo showcase cartridge (which you normally wouldn't see, unless it's bust in half!) are broken off. Don't break a 345-03D in half to see what I mean, I can send you photographs if you're interested!!!

Norman.

Norman,
According to my Postal scale, which should "round off" to the nearest
upper number, the "redhead" and Vern's cartridge both are 12 grams.
The "Pickering" is 10 grams.
You have me somewhat confused, however, by what you have posted here.
None of the above cart's are "Stereo", and none have "4 pins". The
Pickering and Vern's are "Stereo compatible". That means that the needle
is the right size to play stereo ("Micro") groove records, and the
internals have been wired to combine both channels into a "mono" signal,
using only two pins.
If the one you have, had 4 pins, it is a later model which is "true"
stereo.
