Rabco SL-8E Tone Arm

Are you willing to sell the parts you have? I recently sent my arm to someone in order to have the cartridge wires replaced. The individual could not rewire the arm and sent it back "disassembled" with a few parts missing. I was able to put the arm back together, but need a few missing parts. Also any pictures from the service manual would be helpful.
Do you have a service manual?

Nandric, There are two missing parts that I can determine.

One is a small screw located on top of the tone arm wand behind the fixing knob. I believe a ground wire attaches here, under the small screw.

Also, I think there is some sort of bent metal part that goes in this location, but I don't have any photographs as reference to check this.

Finally, there is another small ground wire located in back of the carriage assembly which is currently broken and I'm not sure where it is supposed to be attached. I could send you a picture, but don't think that is possible through Audiogone.

Hiho,

Vinyengine states the following when trying to download the Rabco service manual: "Important Due to a change in the forum software some users may have to reset their passwords in order to log in. Please follow the 'I forgot my password' link below to reset your password."
I've logged in as instructed, but nothing works.

Bifwynne,

I don't know how the Rabco stacks up against modern tone arms. And, I'm not sure when the company went out of business.

Oldears, Just saw your post. I will get back to you in a week or so. I believe I may have a chance to purchase one in the works.
