BTW try carefully putting it upside down to access the cartridge. Odds
are it was made by EV & uses the T shaped needle.

Its an Astatic Powepoint Cartridge, which is available over at Voice of Music Enthusiasts website for $16 for a double tipped unit.

See link above for the needle this unit takes.

And its nice to know this was a good unit, I paid $35 plus tax for it, was that a good price?

This is the later Cobramatic changer. The first one used the Zenith Radionic FM Cobra cartridge. The later one you have is less expensive to replace a cartridge on, and usually has easier cartridge alternative options.
