@SeeburgMusic I think I can find out who sells them. It's still in my PC somewhere,and it is getting as junky as my workshop. Will advise you as soon as I locate it.
@SeeburgMusic The Wurlitzer does have a kill switch, but this happened to me,unlike the Seeburg that prevents it from returning to the magazine, it got past the Wurlitzer's and back in the carousel, . With the damaged record not properly seated the carousel continued on crunching the record, and not really the Wurlitzer's fault Since owning these jukeboxes since the 80's I had only this one record damaged. They are both great machines equal in quality ,and very enjoyable.
@SeeburgMusic I understand your point of view, but my comment was made with my experience with the jukeboxes I own, The Seeburg R I have does have a very light tracking updated Pickering cartridge that I carefully balanced for aniti skating etc. The original Seeburg red head was about the worst cartridge ever.The stylus was like a little ice pick and did destroy records in one playing, and yes it was harder on records than the Wurlitzer cobra, which was not very easy on records either..
@maynardcat Incorrect on just about every point you made. Wurlitzers of this period change records faster and are easier on records than Seeburg. Ever heard of a record being "Seeburged" because it was worn out in a Seeburg 45 mechanism? Turntable speed isn't less accurate in a Wurlitzer. The problem is that no parts vendors sell the right gauge belt. Hard to beat a Wurlitzer turntable drive of this period. Also, the Wurlitzer DOES have a kill switch. if a record gets jammed in it, it stops.
I live in England and have the same jukebox...I have iwned it since 1970 (39 years) it has never been restored and has never broken down but as it gets little use currently, the contacts get a little dusty and need cleaning.. brilliant machine with real vintage sound
i also see one of the plastic caps around the turntabletray is missing. i am also looking for them Anyone selling onef or better 2 of those?
