DOES THIS LOOK RIGHT?
I can get this V-1 at a very good price. Does it look right? Shouldn't it have a bullet brake?

Looks fine to me. It has a beveled underside to the turntable where the brake is activated. No bullet brake on this model.

Re: DOES THIS LOOK RIGHT?
I concur with George. Looks just fine. It does appear to have a "over" finish on it. Maybe it's just the photo..??. If priced right, I would grab it. If the horn and elbow are missing.....they are not too hard to locate.

It has a horn and elbow. This is the one I was asking about the flowered horn. Thanks guys, I will snatch it up.

I don' know anything about the V-1. Never really liked them, but I do like this one with the horn. This is why I asked last week about Victors and flowered horns. I like the brass bell horn on yours also. Its now on its way to me.phonogfp wrote:Gosh - - you can buy the Victor 1 "at a very good price;" it comes with that great aftermarket flowered horn, and you have to ask???![]()

I'll trade you a brass belled Vic 1 horn but you'd be better to keep what you have. Jerry Blais

Thanks Jerry, but the horn is the only reason I bought the machine. I also got a R, but its missing the horn.Jerry B. wrote:I'll trade you a brass belled Vic 1 horn but you'd be better to keep what you have. Jerry Blais
