I recommended George to him. but I still haven’t sent my VV-VIII motor out to George yet since I don’t get paid until Friday. Plus I’m looking for suitable packing material to put my motor in to be shipped to Michigan when I do have the money.mick_vt wrote:veryPeanutTheRabbit wrote:So my phonograph developed a loud squeaking sound.

I sent my entire cabinet out to him. It’s a VV-IV, with a very dirty tone arm...here’s hoping it’ll come back all cleaned up.

Peanut - did you receive your restored VV-IV cabinet back yet? If so, can you post some pictures of it? I bought a basket case VV-IV today and it will need some work, some I'm looking for some inspiration!

Sorry this is hella late, but yes I did get it back. It’s now 4 years later and because of that machine, my intrest skyrocketed! I actually just recently traded it in, in part for a Victor III. It served me well in the years between 20 and 24! So it was definitely worth having repaired.
