That is a long ways from being "just another client machine". The horn is spectacular and the focus of the machine. It makes you wonder why the manufacture felt it necessary to cover the horn. I realize the buying public was looking for a talking machine hidden it a piece of furniture but that horn is amazing. I've always thought you could build a nice collection by buying nothing but unusual uprights. I would only look for machines that tested the boundaries of style. In my opinion this machine falls into that category. I applaud your efforts.
