Now that machine looks amazing and absolutely perfect! Did you have any before photos Jerry so we can see the transformation.
I am interested in all forms of audio media including: gramophones, phonographs, wire recorders, the tefifon, reel to reel tapes, radiograms and radios.

Very nice Jerry! It seems as though I've seen a high percentage of rigid-arm Victors with Sherman Clay plates on them. Is this only my imagination, or have others thought the same thing?

I wish I had taken "before" photos but I was so anxious to get after it that I couldn't wait. Jerry

I've noticed that too. I have to wonder if Sherman Clay struck a deal with Victor to buy up obsolete stock at a discount when the tapered arm was introduced.
