The arm will accomadate 4 - pin bayonet type headsell and supports a Pioneer headshell. The Headshell is a Pioneer and fitted with a Philips 400 series magnetic cartridge with a new stylus all fitted to what I beleive to a Teak or Pine stained base.. Its a belt driven mechanism driven by a small sychronous motor and works very well on the principle of driving a very light weight alumiunim platter, somewhat similar to the Connissiuer turntables. Silcron and JH Reproducers were similar designed turntables made in Australia and a great departure from the heavy motor heavy platter competitive designs.
