Felt replacement for my 1916 Sonora Invincible

Post by audiophile102 »

The felt on my turn table is pretty ratty and it was pointed out to me that green is not the right color. I was told that a reddish / Brown is authentic. I tried to find images of the right color felt, but I could use some help. Anyone have the correct color I'm looking for on their Sonora machine? Here is what mine looks like. http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... =2&t=21672

Here's the reddish/brown turntable felt on a Sonora "Elite" that's here. I shot it with and without flash, but the one without flash is closer to the real color. Think of a brownish brick... :)
