What ever happened to Benjamin J the Victrola guy? He stopped uploading a year ago on youtube and I haven't heard anything about him since.

He helped me many times. I have learned a lot from him. You never know what he is going to do next!

I was learning how to record cylinders and every time I emailed him a question he was always kind enough to respond. Although many people disagree with him on some things his videos are very helpful. I used his work on using a Chaney reproducer on a Victor phonograph to play Pathé records. I ended up adapting a Brunswick Pathé reproducer instead and it plays incredibly well. Hopefully he will get back soon so we can enjoy his videos again.
