I was first introduced to a mechanics stethoscope quite a few years ago when I used to use a regular physicians stethoscope I had picked up somewhere when needed for car repairs. I located a mechanics model in a catalog and ordered it there. I found it to be far more versatile with its long stem conductor instead of the flat plastic head on a physicians model, as well as much easier to use by design. About a year ago my old stethoscope got run over during one of my more intense repairs, and I have since picked up this very same Lisle model from a local parts store. The price here on Amazon for this 52500 model is cheaper than what I paid, and at the time of this writing ships free when bundled. Although there are more expensive models available on Amazon, I cannot imagine anyone needing anything more than what this one offers. Its solid, durable, and very comfortable to wear.
I should point out that a mechanics stethoscope is one of the most versatile tools you can own. Even if you never do any work on cars. You would not believe the number of uses one finds for this instrument when you have one around. Ever have one of those annoying squeaks or rattles inside your car, or some other place that you can't exactly pin down no matter how close you seem to get to it? With this baby you will find ground zero on the squeak in a couple of minutes. In addition to cars, you can easily locate squeaks or noises in any kind of machinery, or in your homes floor and walls. I even used mine to locate an irritating squeak on a neighbors sewing machine. It is very easy to use, and even a lot of fun at times.
As for this model versus a higher priced one, unless you're a highly paid specialist of some kind that prefers the very best, I would pass up the more expensive scopes available here or anywhere else and buy this one. It is all the scope most of us should ever need, and one of the most handy and versatile tools to have in your home or garage..... Recommended.

I purchased the stethoscope to be able to monitor the sound of a clock beat. The scope does allow you to hear the clock beat but not very well.

Good quality instrument is a big help in locating strange noises in engines and any other mechanical items. A great help for "do-it-yourselfers".
