Covah,
Looking good! I second Brian's comment! I can't wait to see it when it's finished. I miss your wonderful phono-rescues!
Regards,
John

Wow Covah, what a job! It took me a full minute to scroll past the listing photo. (Kind of like staring at an accident.) I know you've got more to do, but I'm very impressed. I really didn't think that the decal on the lid could be made to look OK upon stripping, but you've done a nice job in blending. I join the others in saying: "show us more!"

Very nice job Covah! What did you use to strip the paint off?

Covah,
Very good job so far! I was a good deed to save that poor Amberola.
I look forward to see the final result.
And I think you are going to enjoy this phonograph. They are wonderful little machines.
Paal.

Paint's off. No veneer on sides or top.
