Where to buy obscure portable turntable needles?

spelunk

I finally found a battery-powered portable turntable today in Rio (not that easy) and it was cheap, works, but the needle is destroyed. It's brasilian-made, Phillips Brand, with the only marking I can see being "100" on the front.Anyone know a good spot online to buy replacement needles for obscure portables like this? Or am I somewhat stuck here?Photos...very GP3-esque, except no headphone jack and the speaker is on the lid (not pictured)

Hi, Br****n.

Look at this place: http://www.catodi.com.br/

They still sell needles for several turntable brands.

The most important thing would be to find any markings on the cartridge itself. If you can pull anything off that it will make it a lot easier to search.

You need the model number of the turntable and you'll find cartridges here:
