@Westtoledoguy thanks, this gramophone has a mind of its own, it sounds really good with some records, even ones around 100 years old, but some records it sounds terrible with even ones in near perfect condition, i guess thats what gives these old machines character

@kirtley2010 hehe I agree they are wonderful most times

The sound is just unbelievable! Even for an upright it would be impressive! Was that a cat I heard just before you started the record! What a charming room!

@VictrolaJazz i know i was surprised with the sound, im going to make a gramophone with a big horn (a bit like a emg) soon and see how good of a sound i can get from a 78, and i think the sound was my sister, my cat is to lazy t make a noise
