Once Edison standardized on the "type B" Diamond Disc motor, it was in use, with minor variations, until the end of machine production.marco wrote:Not to be pedantic; but are the springs and barrels correct to the era of this machine since the machine was produced for so little time?52089 wrote:Just to be clear, he bought the springs and spring barrels from me, not the "spring motors".

Could there be differences between say, a 1915 spring barrel and a 1925 spring barrel? Possibly very minor ones, but since they would still be completely interchangeable, does it really matter?

Boy if everyone starts looking at “changed parts” only a small percentage of machines will be authentic......just sayin

I feel your "rage" about my inquiries, VIN! I'm "just sayin" that, with a rarer item I would like everything to be all original and that's what I will base my offer on for it. I am not nearly as "anal" about common machines or parts for my jukebox collection. It is my constitutional "rite" to "Kick" as many "Tires" that I want to before making a purchase. The more questions I ask, the less likely I am to be disappointed when I get an item. As my mother used to say--get outside once in a while and "get the stink blown off of you" instead of sitting at your computer letting that "VinRAGE" get to you.......just sayinVinrage_mania wrote:Boy if everyone starts looking at “changed parts” only a small percentage of machines will be authentic......just sayin

I "Seriously" take offense when someone makes a rude or sarcastic comment that does not serve any purpose when I am only trying to gather information.gramophone-georg wrote:Dude.

It was a statement of fact as I read it...

Stick to the subject at hand. The original posts over the last year were for the seller to find a value; whether or not to fix the phono and to try to sell it on this forum. I merely asked clarification as to what kind of motor repair was done and see no need to defend myself further. Comments should be withheld unless they apply specifically to the item being offered. Fortunately there are a few nice guys who came forward and provided all of the information I needed via post and PM.gramophone-georg wrote:marco wrote:I "Seriously" take offense when someone makes a rude or sarcastic comment that does not serve any purpose when I am only trying to gather information.gramophone-georg wrote:

Wow! marco
While all your points are valid ,and not anil at all from a practical standpoint
I think you are reading too much into my statment that a high percentage of machines have at least ONE replacement part
Thats all I met ....no rage no taunting nothing more ..,
