Sophisticated, sleek mahogany splendor! This Victor IV (Four) Talking Machine is exquisitely beautiful. A top quality instrument. The condition of the components is outstanding. The hardware is excellent. We carefully restored the solid mahogany cabinet and ribbon mahogany "spear-tip" horn to match precisely the tone and luster of the original finish. The warmth and rich robust color of the wood is breathtaking.
Solid mahogany cabinetry. Gorgeous.
The original cast iron bracket retains its fancy blue and gold filigree decoration. Look at the way this instrument glows. As always, we meticulously rebuilt the soundbox (needlehead) so that the music you hear is bright, clear, round and robust. Walk into an antique shop selling a Victrola and you'll hear harsh, shrill, ear-piercing tones -- the soundbox is a key component, and to get it to play sweetly you must be an expert. The average antique dealer is out of his league.
The correctly cleaned and adjusted motor. We installed TWO NEW MAINSPRINGS. Power, sophisticated technology, and the best quality sound available from any dealer.
This is one of the most beautiful Victors we have ever had in our long history of experience. It is elegant to the nth degree. A wooden horn gramophone of this quality is the kind of investment that always pays off. It is now and will ever continue to be the BEST! We have spent more than 50 years in the business and our founder has 8 books in print on the subject of antique phonographs. No other dealer on the planet can approach these credentials.
Price: $4250.00 US, plus s/h. (NY State residents must add sales tax, if applicable.)
