Does anybody have a Columbia BQ cylinder machine? That's the machine that is a rear mount cylinder with a horizontal carriage. I would like to see a picture of the carriage, reproducer, and connector from the arm to the reproducer. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Re: Columbia BQ Cylinder Machine
Marcel,
Thank you for the picture. Is there any gold striping on the carriage? Last Sunday, I was at a swap meet and I picked up a BQ mechanism with reproducer for $50,00. It is geared for 2/4 min. This will be a worthwhile project to get the case and other parts to restore this machine.

Hi
Yes it does have some gold stripe on the carriage, looks like a rectangle. I sold that machine some time a go so I can't give you details. Here is another picture.
