Thorens 145 MKII headshell?

Hi all,

I just purchased a Thorens 145 MKII. It needed a bit of TLC but is starting to simply amaze me. {Much better than my Pioneer PL510-A}

One thing I need is the headshell. It looks like this model didnt come with a headshell but a lever of some kind. { I need a bit of help with my terms}

I cannot find any info on this with searching here, vinyl engine, analog dept and google.

Does anyone know if an aftermarket headshell will fit, if so what would I look for.

Can I make one myself? It looks like I am just missing the lever.

It looks like an all stock table and arm.

Thanks!

Yep Ihcho thats the arm. I checked all over that site and didnt see those pics. Probably because its a 160, but thats my arm and the lever is what I need.

Thanks again!!

Thanks. I will check out vinyl nirvana.

Sns: Thanks for the offer but I dont think it will fit my 145 MKII. I have the longer arm connector. The part I am missing looks like a lever of some kind.

Its not a big deal, still plays fab.
