Hi. I've recently been given an old Garrard SP25 MKIV, it's the first 78rpm playing turntable I've had, I've been using portable wind up gramophones for years.
I fitted a new 78 stylus, all sounds great but when it gets toward the end of the record it gets stuck in one of the final grooves and keeps skipping and won't progress. It's on every record I've tried from my collection.
I know there's a way to reset the stop point of the arm but I've no idea how to go about it and thus far Google has not offered any solutions.
Anyone able offer some advice? It should be known that I am a inept with anything handy so step by step advice for an idiot would be great...
