Ok so I managed to freeze and get the reproducer for the ICS Amberola out but managed to chip the pot metal in question. Now the neck part is still stuck in the adapter part and was already broken off when I got it. So the question is can this reproducer be saved? How rare or difficult would a replacement be? Should I just put a Diamond C and just let it be a regular Amberola 30 but that would take away the ability to play wax amberols too…

I believe the Amberola 30 adapted for ICS use had a Model H reproducer with a bobbed (cut off) weight.

The carriage adapter also has this part you put the screw in that the aluminum adapter does not.

I believe I have an extra if you are interested. Email or PM me.
