The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

If anyone is near Atlanta and thinks they can save this, the seller will take a fair and reasonable offer.
After thinking it over carefully, it's a little bit much for me to tackle, but I would like to see it saved.
PM me for contact info.
All I ask is that whoever is interested tries to restore this machine as opposed to removing the reproducer, tonearm, etc. and discarding the rest.

The seller also has the VV-100 pictured - same deal - reasonable offer.

I will move the photos and description to the Yankee Trader Section.

This machine has taken a lot of time, off and on since this spring, but it is looking much better these days. I picked up a plain Credenza a couple of weeks ago that required a lot less elbow grease. I thought they looked pretty nice side by side.

If anyone needs lower molding (below door level) made for the TLP style cabinet, there is a shop here in Bartlett, TN that made some for me. The blades for cutting it had to be custom made, and I have the blades so that the molding can be replicated. The lower molding on these Credenzas are different, as are the feet.

Glad to see you saved it! Nice job & nice machine!!

that looks great... It must have taken a lot of time and patience to complete. Tom B

Matt, both of your machines look fantastic!!! Why did you buy another Credenza? for Bookends? Just kidding. We collectors know why! I myself have two big Viva-tonal Columbias, an 800 and an 810!

I'm considering a Credenza and your making that choice easier and easier Their is one for sale near me and it's very tempting.

The look and sound is hard to beat if you have the room for a Credenza. Good luck with your acquisition!
