Columbia Gothic: need help seeing the turntable set up.

Post by Dustie89 »

Hey everyone.

We have a Columbia Gothic cabinet. I was hoping someone may have pictures of the inside, turntable, horn, reproducer, etc so we can see what would have went in it.

Thanks
Dustin

Which model Gothic is it? Columbia offered several different cabinets in that style.

Hey Bill

Sorry about that. Honestly I'm not too knowledgeable about Columbias. I've copied and pasted a link of the same model I found on the internet. The machine is a project a friend and I are working on. The turntable and motor are with the machine. Its always easier to see how it all goes together in there.

Dustin, The pic of the Gothic above is the cabinet on sBay and the pics below are from the complete machine also for sale. I coincidentally and fortunately purchased the same Gothic, though just an empty cabinet with its lid glued down and no expectations of completehood. Good luck and if you find out a good candidate as a donor machine for parts, I sure would like to know the model. -Wayne

This one looks like a "universal" (brush-type AC/DC) motor... I have one in a Teen's Grafonola Nonpareil.
