Early Amberola VI on eBay, pretty cheap

Post by PeterF »

This is pretty cool, the original type of Amberola VI, which was sort of a junior version of the V. Have a look:

These have a reputation for being noisy, but this one really isn't that bad at all. There's video in case you want to see/hear for yourself.

They only made them for less than a year. This one has an incorrect grille and incorrect paint on the motor cover, but the price reflects this.

In any case, have fun looking.

Actually they aren't as noisy as their reputation suggests, as long as there is ample oil applied to the whole mechanism. Although, the motor is definitely louder than most other machines.
