Mounting 10"-12" selector buttons on Edison C-250
I bought one of the 10"-12" selector button gadgets recently, but I have no instructions for mounting it. Would someone having a C-250/C-19 so equipped be so kind as to measure how far back the front edge of the button mounting plate should sit from the inside lip of the cabinet front, so I can duplicate the setup? Once I have the plate in the right place, I'll be able to work out where to mount the doohickey (scientific term) that goes on the horn. To anyone who can help me out, thanks! At about the same time I bought one of the reproduction bolt-on spare reproducer brackets, and I already have the LP gearing installed and the corresponding reproducer, so I'm looking forward to having an almost "fully loaded" machine.

Sounds great. I know nothing, however.

Image shown of my C 19 SN 172,249.
The measurement is 4-27/32" from the front edge of the turntable trim piece.

This helps me too, I'm going to be adding one to my C-19 soon. Does anyone have the measurements for the placement of the single reproducer holder?

Is yours the bolt-on type, or the kind held to the wood with screws? I bought one of the reproduction bolt-on types that were briefly available through the Yankee Trader section recently. It fits easily between the bedplate and false work, and I slipped it as far to the left as possible to avoid interference with the horn and reproducer in play.HisMastersVoice wrote:This helps me too, I'm going to be adding one to my C-19 soon.

I don't have specific measurements, but these are typically screwed to the rear interior toward the left corner. Avoid mounting it too far to the left, or the slanted frame of the lid's interior will contact the reproducer when in place.

I have a C-19 with one mounted in the rear of the cabinet, I'm going to send him measurements and photos this afternoon. I will also post it here in case it's useful to anyone.
