Eric, how did you get the cabinet to look so nice?

With the help of these products 0000 steel wool and elbow grease and soft towels like cloth diapers. I never really finished the whole cabinet but iv'e got time i'm only 60

That Orange Oil would eat up my hands as I am allergic to it... I'd have to use gloves..

Was that 78 adapter made by Edison? I've heard that Edison made their own adapter very early before banning it, and very late when the needle cut Edisons came out.

Looks like an Orotone adapter. See this thread:

I'll be filling out the A-250 data base soon.

Thanks, Marty. That would be great - it's one I haven't recorded yet. I'm jealous, the condition looks to be really nice, and well...the price!

As for the earlier comment to the grille material being original - no, but that's really not much of an issue (IMHO), and I don't want to make a big deal out of my observance.

Cheers,
Fran
