The finish on this player is of the Mahogany variety.

The mechanism was completely disassembled and all parts have been cleaned and polished, removing all old grease and oil. The motor was also taken apart and cleaned and properly lubes for quiet running operation. The player was then reassembled and adjusted to the manufacturers specifications. This automatic record change automatically drops records and after the last record plays it will shut itself off. The 4 speed changer runs correctly at all speeds 16,33, 45, & 78 rpm.

Please feel free to ask any questions and I will respond in a timely manner, as there are no returns or regrets, although your complete satisfaction is very important to me as I really enjoy working on these vintage players and bringing them back to life. The player is quite heavy and will be properly double boxed and padded to ensure its safe arrival to you, so shipping will be a bit pricey, sorry I have no control over that. If you are looking for a great everyday player then this might be the player for you.
