Default Re: Bush SRP31D - Restoration

That BSR SX6 cartridge you have is a good replacement for the Sonotone 8TA which the player came with, which have nearly all died by now. It will take the following flip over styli. Buy depending on whether you have or want 78 shellac discs:

ST12, ST14: one tip for vinyl, one for 78s
ST15: Two tips for vinyl
ST19: single tip for vinyl (Not flip over).

I would at least insulate the wires and see if that helps, but in the long term it woudl be advisable to replace them. Ond mouse and USB cables may yield some suitably thin cable.
