WANTED: EMG or Expert gramophone (US)

Post by Orchorsol »

Hi all,

This is not for myself, but for my friend Mary Littlefield in Stow, MA who is not a member here on the TMF. Here is her wonderful Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@marylittlefield9091/videos - from which the reason she wants one of these will become very clear. She wants one as a 'daily driver' or workhorse.

She realises this is a long shot, but perhaps this will lodge in some of your minds and if you become aware of one of these fabulous instruments for sale, maybe you'll remember and get in touch with her or me.

Thanks in advance if so!

There was one for sale around a month ago in the Post Office Antique Mall, Ladysmith, B.C., Canada. I have no connection to the machine. I think it is the biggest. I regretted not photographing.

I hadn't thought of that one but it is a very fine Xb and owned by good friends of mine so am enquiring about the asking price.

I remember you bringing my attention to it a few years back.

The machine in Canada is still available according to Jerry, the store owner. The sticker price is $12,000 Canadian or around $8,500 US. I'm sure this forum could find a way to get a machine like this to a buyer in the US.
