I have no sucess on finding a tonearm like this by searching with Google, eBay, etc.
Can anybody help, please?
Thanks.

It's called GE TM-2G. A real 1960 dinosaur. Extinct by now most likely.

Its a bless having a 92 y/o father!!!
Hope he can help us!
Mine was a Quimical Engeneer and always helped me with tecnical questions.
I work with vintage equipments, and all documentation ads to the value.
Here in Brasil a REK O KUT and those vintage tonearms are very rare.
Thank you.

Nope, Sorry. He gave me the looks like he doesn't know what I'm talking about and sent me looking through his cabinets and drawers "if I like to", arguing we never had a GE record player...
I'm convinced we did but my dad was my validation for it in the first place. Did my inner 6 y/o dream this up? At least now he doesn't mind me going through his stashes of cool stuff...

No problem Tom, I appreciated your effort and help.
Since I ve never seen a GE tone arm, first I was thinking that somebody glued a GE emblem over this tonearm!
Now I know everything...
Many thanks.

GE in that era, blew their approach to Stereo. The tonearm you want is called the Stereo Classic. They weren't very heavy sellers.
