oddball homemade?

Post: # 8713Post hermitcrab »

looks good, by the age of the components I would say late 50's? the price is a little too much as far as I'm concerned

If that cabinet is indeed homemade, somebody did some nice work. The components are pretty much antiques, probably were when they were installed. Agreed the price is too high.

I saw a similar ad for the same item the other day. It was not Facebook, as I'm not a member but I can't remember where. Craig's list maybe. Yes, I agree the price is kind of steep.

Essexville is right next to Bay City, where the Chevy lives.My sister's address is Essexville. Is there any indication of who the vendor is?

Components are from various periods.

Garrard Type A changer 1961

Pioneer reverb-audio amp 1969-70

Reel to reel from ?

I don't doubt it is a custom cabinet.

It's appears professionally constructed.

And if "it needs to go", they better do a price deal.

When I looked at the photos, I did not notice the amp/receiver. Or was that what was under the R to R?
