That jukebox rocks...

It was worth the dropping the quarter in the slot just watching this thing work. The jukebox is a work of art. What a mechanical marvel. Thanks for sharing.

My very first record, bought in '56, I was 11. I still have it. It's on display in my living room in a RCA Victor 78 rpm record holder, made of bakelight (early plastic).

This is the record that made me want to play guitar.

Smoothancool No it didn’t

Fabulous looking and sounding! Thanks for such perfection!

Love those old juke boxes..!!!!! thanks for sharing yours!

NICE JUKE BOX! FIP TO THRE RECORD YOU ARE PLAYING IS ONE OF MY FAVORITS.

Looks like one I sold a few (quite a few actually) years back. Animation, green background, cream colored deck, reproduction decal.. Wouldn't be surprised if that was it. That's one I shouldn't have sold! If it was mine it was originally set up to play 45's and I converted it back. It had plastic buttons in the trays to hold the 45's centered and I had to add a plastic overlay to the motor spindle to bring it up to speed. I fine tuned it by sanding down a bit while it ran.

what a great sound .sounds so Different }

Sounds great!

This was so great to see and hear! Thanks for sharing :-)

Love the vintage sound the jukebox gives off, especially how it’s slowed down. Somewhat more of a heavy sound.

@@antonematos6241 Great! Thank you for asking and for watching this video clip.

wondertful player

Wow! very nice. Would love to this machine play the other side of the record. I see the needle on the top of the tonearm. Very cool.

It's playing slightly slow to avoid copyright infringement on youtube:) Otherwise It'd get taken down, unless the person who put it up holds all the publishing and copyrights to this song

its playing to slow.the motor should have a speed adjustment

Bill Wren I want an jupbox so bad I can't find the old ones like this

Not at the moment but I have had LOLLIPOP and TEENAGE GOODNIGHT on there as I have many of their 78's.

@wurlitzergroup Hi, yes, pilasters are animated as is the small light on top (very tough to do this) and backlighting. It has a great sound! Thanks for your comment, I've seen your videos before and they are very informative.

Yes, you're right, the "A" sides play somewhat slow, but the "B" sides play faster, as this machine has a reversible motor. Don't know what else I can do except change the motor...all suggestions are welcomed!

@harristeeter1 check the voltage to the motor, voltage controls the speed of an electric motor assuming it has enough amps

@greenwichlirr Good ear! You're right, the "A" sides are slighly slower, and the "B" sides are slighly faster...don't know how to remedy this short of a new motor. Thanks for the comment.

The motor may just need cleaned and oiled. However, it's probably easier said than done in this situation. Just a tad slow but it was still really cool.

When they were lit up they were very pretty. Not so much turned off. LOL. Time to get in there and tear down the motor and clean and oil the bearings.

+seywhut2985 A little cleaning of the old bearings, some nice Lubriplate 105 - she'll sing another 75 years or so - probably longer!! Beautiful machine!! Need any title strips?? I have them by the dozens. I can also make them as well, if a strip is obsolete. Let me know if you could use them.

Great song, thumbs up. But why it plays so slow?

Wow - I am restoring a Super rocket - Yours looks very nice - and it's always nice to see these jukes still on coin play - is that animation I see in those pilasters? *jimmy in MD

Het there i have this juke box in my lounge!! had it bloody years!! very rare model!! plays 45rpm or 78rpm!! lovely looking machine and good sound!! mine is set up for 45rpm!! but i still have the original 78rpm cartridge and bits n bobs !! infack i got in storage a complette mech 4 spare for it!! Your badge on the front dome is wrong one as it s for the rock ola rocket and not the super rocket!! i have the right transer here spare one here bud!! contact me if youd be interested??

I was hoping you would download a video playing the other side of a record.

Just wondering what kind of cartridge you're using in the tone arm. Is it a ceramic (Astatic?) or did you convert to a magnetic type?

78s have a great sound quality because of the space between the grooves; Unfortunately, shellac is not good vinyl material.

78s have a good sound quality because of the width of the groove and higher speed. Shellac is not a good vinyl material? Vinyl is a plastic, surely you mean record. I don't see a problem with shellac. It lasts forever.
