Just finished rebuilding a very nice Columbia high trunnion model AT cylinder phonograph.
The Good:
I installed 1 new spring, cleaned and greased the other one, had to free up the reproducer lift lever, cleaned and lubed everything, installed a new belt, spent a lot of time cleaning the cabinet, runs very nicely.
The Bad:
There is no crank and the reproducer is a reproduction that doesn't sound very good.
The Ugly:
There was some damage to the cabinet on the side that was repaired functionally but not cosmetically. Also, the decals are complete but show their age. (See photos for details)
Asking $350 plus shipping or come by the shop in Castle Rock, WA (I-5 Exit 49) and pick up.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! Cliff
