Newbie needs some guidance Technics SL-B20

[papasnurf]

I have a Technics turntable Model SL-B20

I am having a difficult time finding a replacement cartridge and stylus. The one that is currently on it , is a replacement and I am not sure if was the correct replacement.

I know the SL-B2 takes a EPC-270C cartridge and a EPS-270SD stylus.

My question is …..does anyone know what the replacement parts are for the SL-B20, are they the same as SL-B2and where can I buy these replacement parts?

Thank you.

The B20 looks to have the straight arm, with a P-mount cartridge. They are interchangeable.

Pick one.

With the P-mount system you can use any P-mount cartridge that you want.
But I would use a medium quality, one from about $40-$80.

Now for the original one that came with it
