Columbia AT in the Wrong Cabinet?

Post by CDBPDX »

I recently acquired a Columbia AT cylinder phonograph to rebuild. Installed new springs, new belt, had to free up the lift lever, cleaned a lot, and now it runs great. Only issue remaining, I think the cabinet is not correct for the high trunnion AT. What have I got?

Thanks! Cliff

Thanks! Looks like I might have an original AT cabinet after all, the less ornate 3rd/last version. Very happy I won't have to go hunting for another cabinet!

Mines a fairly early, low trunnion model, serial 213,846.
