question for you vinyl lovers.. i replaced the Pioneer needle on my PL-530 with the same one it had that was bad. it's a Pioneer PN-50 (also called PC-50) needle... can this head accept different needles?

I know this may be a stupid question.. but i honestly don't know... and if I wanted to move up in quality.. i'd hate to shell our decent bucks only to find out it won't work.
