Does anyone know of a good, aftermarket headshell that will sub for the TP-60 Thorens headshell? I want to use a second cartridge in a spare headshell and the TP-60s are hard to find, even on eBay. Thanks.

Follow-on question (headshell for TP-16)
Since posting, a friend has informed me he thinks either a Sumiko HS-12 or Nagaoka MG-704 may work on a Thorens TP-16 arm. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks.

Perhaps a picture might help us.
Most headshells/tonearms use the standard 4 pin bayonet fitting. But, my own Thorens TD150 AB Mk.II with the TP13 arm has a slightly different fitting with four enlongated pins.
Have you tried here for the information that you need?http://www.theanalogdept.com/td125_dept.htm

I don't think there is anything else that will work on the TP-16. They won't take the standard SME type that fits most S or J type arms and they won't take the headshells from any of the other straight arms I've found either. Which is why the Thorens headshells regularly go for $40-50 on eBay. If you do find anything else, let me know.
