Seeburg Cartridges

[juke46]

I just noticed, on Ebay, the "Vern Tisdale" Seeburg Cartridges for sale.  I posted this just so everyone could take a look.  I haven't any interest or connection to this endeavor.  I haven't any knowledge beyond what I have stated here.  It is pricey, but I supose if you need a cartridge you need a cartridge.  When Vern was getting started making these I bought one of his first cartridges.  Vern passed away a few years ago.  As I understand his son sold some cartridges after his death perhaps he still is or the cartridge may now be made by someone else.  I haven't any idea of the maker.   The early one I have still resides in one of my Seeburgs and plays well (to me).  We do not play the machine enough to judge record wear but it sounds good so far.  I would expect with the installation of this cartridge you would need to make some tone-arm adjustments and needle brush adjustments.  There is a short video on the Ebay listing.  I copied the video link from Ebay below, It might work and it might not.
