"The
Sophisticated Jukebox".
At first
glance it could easily pass for your folks old Admiral or Magnavox
home stereo system. Remember the one that sat stately at one end
of the living room?
Well this
ain't your Dad's old AM/FM, 5 record, 3 speed changer. It's an
80 record, 160 selection, "retro" style juke that would
just plain smoke that Westinghouse console from back in the day.
The stereo
separation and killer sound that emits from this beautiful cabinet are
unachievable in conventional jukes unless you connect remote speakers
to them. The speakers are an amazing 31-inch apart! If you sit
somewhere between 5 and 15 feet in front of this lovely beast, you'll
be blown away by the stereo separation.
The rugged
Shure M-44 cartridge (we used them in radio stations) sends its signal
through a powerful (100 watt) solid state stereo amplifier into two
6-inch mid and high frequency speakers and two 12-inch full range
speakers.
Although
intended for use in fancy restaurants and classy lounges it came along
during a time when jukebox use in exactly those places was
waning. Thus not too many of this style were ever sold.
Then once they
were retired from service by the jukebox operators, they tended to get
banged around a bit. They normally ended up acting as storage
since they had a nice flat top. Luckily that surface was a burn
and mar proof polyester material. In the end they'd get torn
down and stripped for parts that could be used in conventional jukes.
This
particular unit has been in the living room of a sweet little ranch
house in fashionable Porter Ranch in the San Fernando Valley of LA
since it was new. The minor dings on the cabinet come from
helping raise a family over 35 years.
The
"innards" are spotless and the playmeter shows an accurate
3500 plays. As a comparison, a typical jukebox rented for a
weekend party chalks up 200 to 500 plays in 3 days.
The mechanism
is tried, true, dependable and simple. For a few bucks more,
we'll throw in a nifty Rockola motorized remote control so you won't
have to get up from your easy chair to turn it up or down, on or off
or even cancel tunes.
So
if you have a comfortable place in your home for the fun of a jukebox
and the sophisticated look of a fine piece of furniture, this is it.
You can add a remote control unit too.
We ship worldwide and to insure
proper care we crate the jukeboxes ourselves. Call us with your
shipping address and we'll get you a competitive shipping/insurance
quote (prices vary according to value and destination), unless you'd
like to pick it up or have us deliver it in the Southern California
area.
Our experience in servicing jukeboxes bought elsewhere through the
Internet is that many sustain some kind of damage in transport. When
you buy a jukebox from us we make sure the components inside are
properly secured. In some cases we can send you detailed photos and
instructions on how to unpack the unit and get it up and running.
"We only sell quality
reconditioned jukeboxes that we'll be happy to service in the future.
This we've done since 1971."
