    Tonearm head difference?

    So,I have a Sanyo tt(tp1030) that is basically trashed. The tonearm head that screws off,like a Pioneer,is still good with a modest cart and new stylys. I was wondering,as I once had a pl518,if these will fit pioneers as it looks exactly like it by the way the contacts are situated. Any opinions?
