FOR SALE: VV 8-12- $500.00

Post by DGPros »

I've decided to part with my VV 8-12. It has all the record binders (which are also filled with appropriate records) The good is she is very clean, all parts seem to be original,(except back bracket) rebuilt motor, solid reproducer. The bad is it has been painted(reproducer)some metallic gold color. Not sure if the door knobs are all correct.(notice the size differential) and I believe the horn needs to be sealed. She's not as loud as I've heard others, but she still plays well. I can also deliver it to the Wayne show if you want.

This is the first model phonograph I bought over 35 years ago. It got me started in this hobby/obsession. It is a great sounding machine and well worth what you are asking. I regretted selling mine years ago and finally found another one about a year ago.

I'm sure I'll regret it too. I'm just looking to make some room at this point. :roll:

I just got one and its my new favorite machine. It just sounds so incredible with a re-built reproducer.

I thought I would bump this post. I should be going to the Union show in June. If I don't have any buyers on this or my 2-C Edison Long Play, I may fly to the show, so please let me know asap. Thanks

I don't know where you live, but there is a guy named Jerry, who you can hire to haul these machines from Union to Oregon. Then in August, he can deliver them to the APS show in Buena Park, CA! He's already delivering a machine for me, and hauling one to George in Oregon.
