FOR SALE- Amberola 30 -$350

[dzavracky]

Here’s my amberola 30 for sale. I am selling it almost fully functional. I got this as a box of parts (literally). I cleaned every bit of the motor, put it back together, and restored the finish on the case. I had to make a veneer patch, as can been seen in the pictures. The best part about this Amberola 30, is that it has a fully rebuilt reproducer with a brand new diamond stylus from Wyatt Markus. It is really loud and clear.
The motor is kinda loud as it’s starting up, but it’s pretty quiet once it gets running.
The only thing I haven’t been able to put together is the feed screw mechanism. I have all the parts but have tried numerous times and can’t seem to figure it out.

It is missing the govenor cover and the two grills that cover the horn and the space above the horn.

I’m asking $350 + shipping for it. Please feel free to ask me questions. It will be boxed very carefully. Reasonable offers considered.

David,

I hate to see you give up on this feed nut. Just copied these images from eBay. Maybe they'll help you out. https://www.ebay.com/itm/EDISON-PHONOGR ... Swj5xfOFAZ

Well I had it together but I think the piece that sits on the back of the reproducer carriage is bend down....making the half nut push down WAY to hard on the feed screw. I think it needs to be bent up but I don’t want to go bending things without really knowing what I’m doing. For someone who knows how it works it would be a reallr easy fix for sure. Plus I have almost zero extra time with school right now

Plus I would like to sell it regardless of whether I get the feed screw working. I have the chance to get a really cool machine... but to get it I’ll have to sell one.

FOR THOSE STILL INTERESTED:

I decided to just figure it out last night and I got the half-nut attached and it sounds great! I will be happy to PM/email/text a video of it playing.

Again.. reasonable offers considered!
