Make your own vinyl records! This machine, made in New York at some point in the 1950s, was made for the at-home hobbyist to record speech and music. I purchased it last year and have loved it but don't have time to use it like I would like. The machine includes an analog preamp and RCA cutterhead. We used the machine to cut 7", 10", and 12" blanks, but it can also be used to emboss. The cover includes a speaker, which makes it a great machine for doing pop-ups. We used it to both cut vinyl records from digital sources and do direct-to-vinyl recordings. This includes the lathe, two cutting styli, the belt-drive motor (the original direct-drive motor was removed at some point,) all the parts it came with, a compressor, an upgraded dashpot counterweight kit, and 7" records. I'll also have a set-up discussion with you to talk about best practices and where to procure materials if you are new to the lathe-cutting world. Message me if you have any questions. It's rare that working equipment like this hits the market!
