Columbia Grafonola Deluxe (Cabinet Only) Craigs List Seattle

Post by audiophile102 »

The Cabinet was refinished. How hard would it be to replace the mechanism? Real hard I suspect. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/atq/5561833591.html

It would be extremely difficult to find the right parts. The motor, crank, tone arm, turntable and other hardware is unique to this machine. By the time you locate the parts, the cost will be prohibitive. That's if you can even find these parts. With the poorly refinished cabinet, you will end up with a parts machine that you will never be happy with. The pictures are poor and really don't show any details, so it will be a pig in a poke.
