Any questions, feel free to ask... John

Fix your subject line says Opera, or I will buy the Opera for $1695. Either way works fine.

Beautiful machine,

A friend was interested in adding an Edison Concert to his collection and asked if I'd take a look at your machine so I went to your website. It is an attractive machine but I have a question. In your description you say "You can switch it back to playing concert cylinders with no problem." You'd need both the Concert carriage and Concert mandrel and I don't think you are offering those parts with your machine. Is that correct? Next I went to Ebay and checked each part individually. I found nothing in both current listings or an advanced search for each item. So if a buyer wanted to play Concert or Grand cylinders, how could this conversion be made "with no problem?" Apparently these parts are extremely difficult to find. Do you know of any other source for them?

Thanks, Jerry Blais

Jerry, I have been looking for another original Edison Concert carriage for many years. They are just about impossible to find. One of my concert machines has the setup your talkIng about.
