Hello everyone. Just dug my Rega Planar 2 out. I bought it somewhere around 1994. Have I got an RB220 or RB250 tonearm?

Thanks.

RB250 - I think the 220 might have been a later Rega product.

Thanks both. RB250 sounds right and thinking back, that's what I'd have guessed. Just that I looked it up and found there was a 220 as well.

PH brings results as usual. beer

Yep, definitely 250.

The RB-220 has different bearing housing ends and arm rest.
