Found this on CL but it was gone in an hour.
Is this the rare cylinder machine?

Re: Craigslist for less than an hour
It's either an Amberola III or a Diamond Disc A-150. They used the same cabinet. The III is by far the more desirable of the 2.

Re: Craigslist for less than an hour
I am beginning to notice that anything special or underpriced online is getting grabbed pretty quickly these days...... Oh well, fun while it lasted

So you can't tell by the picture. I didn't know they were the exact same cabinet.

Picture isn't good enough to determine.

It was located right outside of Syracuse. I thought maybe you were the guy that got it.

Re: Craigslist for less than an hour
If it was a Amberola 3, I already have one. And if it was a diamond disc machine, I don't need another one. No more room. I was thinking about your c-4, but don't know how to fit it in. I already know how great it sounds as I restored a radio only version a long time ago. (r-4?)

Re: Craigslist for less than an hour
You know, come to think of it, I had posted my 1971 BSA Lightning on Craigslist on Wednesday at noon. By 3 pm I had sold it somebody in NC. I've never put up and taken down an ad so quickly before.

Re: Craigslist for less than an hour
The major plus of this machine is the set of record boxes, which are almost never seen. It's still overpriced at $450 IMHO, but maybe not with the boxes. It does have the correct oxidized bronze reproducer and the box too.Dischoard wrote: ↑Sat May 01, 2021 11:39 pm And in VT this has been on for 9 days... what was the price?
