Ultra 5814 - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

I've got an Ultra 5814 - it belonged to my parents, reckon its around 50 years old. I've got it out of the cupboard where its been lounging for a while and found it doesn't have a stylus at the moment.

I recall it looked something like the attached pic, but the site (http://www.stylusplus.co.uk/ultra-stylus-422-c.asp) I found it on had 4 that looked the same.

Any advice on which one would work gratefully received!

It suspect that there is a BSR cartridge in the tone arm of your Ultra. I can't trace a 5814 model. Can you post a pic please or read off the type number on the body of the cartridge. It may say something like SC12M.
