Early Edison A-250

Post by msherman »

I acquired this a few years ago from Ron Dethlefson, and thought I would share a few photos. It's a very early example, with a serial number of SM-161.

Your A250 is a very nice example. Thanks for posting the photos.

Mine is a later one made of oak and it sounds great.
