The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I've wanted a VTLA for the longest time. This past weekend I just picked up the one I regretted not buying at Union (since the truck was already full ). It cleaned up beautifully and I couldn't be happier with it! None of the frieze molding is damaged and the finish is all original and in superb condition. All I have done so far is go over it with New Life Furniture Masque which absolutely works wonders. Next up on my list... a Victor VI.

Is New Life Furniture Masque better than using GoJo ??

In my opinion, it is a superior product, yes. It's $20 a jar, but well worth the premium price.

Congratulations Brandon! This style VTLA is one of my favorite overall designs and is also high on my bucket list. Yours looks great with the albums and everything.

I'm going to try it Brandon - thanks!

That's a beauty, albums and all.

That is a very, very fine example. I'd hang onto that for a long time if I were you.

It's definitely in the "not for sale until I'm dead" category!

Very nice. The VTLA was a benchmark for elegant uprights. Jerry Blais

Congrats on this beauty!!!
