The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I had to take a picture of this one, the price was around $350.00 I believe.

I've seen worse. MUCH WORSE!

The kludge has the possibility of playing well, at least. Good motor, ball bearing tone arm, large horn.

Don Gfell has oversized cast aluminum back brackets which will accept the fat tone arm. One of those and a cast aluminum horn elbow would turn this thing into a very good player, though a bit of a Frankenstein Monster.

It would be an excellent value at, say, $100 or $150.

BLAHHHHH!

Good motor? It does not appear to be original, because the crank has been relocated near the rear of the cabinet.
