Thanks, Bruce. Actually it's painted mahogany brown to match the cabinet. As and aside, the company is still in business, and makes of all things the paper for our money here in the U.S. They are located in the western part of Massachusetts (Dalton) and have been in business since the late 1700s!!Valecnik wrote:Very nice Victor 6 Bill. Is that a black linenoid horn you've got there? I think they fit a Victor VI very nicely. On a IV they look a bit overwhelming. I got one on a MS of all things.

Thanks, The reproducer is oxidised but it's an O bottom with a new repro top. I had a guy oxidise it. I have a nice original brass O that's nickel plated but I didn't want to take off the original nickel to oxidise it.Amberola 1-A wrote:Bruce, I just scrolled up to your IDEAL...............yikes!!! Gorgeous!!! Is the O oxidized too?
