I have a room full of old electronics...record players...ham radios...there's even a wind up player with a horn I bought when I was 7 in Michigan.
Always meant to work on them, but don't know the first thing about them. Mostly, I've concentrated on restoring old tube amps from the 30's and 40's. They were shipped with a lap steel for $29.95 as a product for the very first infomercials. you older folks will remember the 1/2 hour shows with hula dancers and big guys playing ukes.
My interest is twofold...music history and advertising history, something I teach every other semester or so.
