Default Advice

For ease of repair and not complicated go with a mid 50`s Seeburg . I
like the looks of the Seeburg G best myself . Other models real close to
that one have basicaly the same insides such as the C model .
They consist of a record changer behind glass and 2 un-complicated
electronic chassis mounted to the back door . The sound quality of these
with the right cartridge is amazing

I have found if you compleatly restore a jukebox before putting it into
use it will go a long long time . The older ones sometimes like a little
oil or contact cleaning at times . These older machines seem to hold
better interest and value .

I have worked on a bunch of 70`s through mid 80`s jukeboxes . You never
know what one of these sounds like till you hear it . I had a pretty
nice smaller mid 80`s Rockola that said ``supersound`` in HUGE letters
on the front of it . Had big huge speakers too .. sounded like crap !
