lojo Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Can anyone take on a Wurlitzer 200-a repair project ? Long shot , but thought I'd ask I'm Based in Surrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmo Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 That is one of the problems of old jukeboxes today. I got a broken one last year, and could never find any one who fixes them anymore. I did find a small electrical repair firm who looked at it. When he did find the fault, it was going to cost loads of money, as I could only find parts in USA. He told me it wasn`t worth it as the circuit boards were pretty fragile as well. I ended up dumping it and buying a working one. They are great things to have. I do hope you get it fixed though. They look really cool and it would be a shame to have to get rid of an old one like that. Mine was an old eighties thing, so I wasn`t that upset, but a Wurlitzer 200 A I would be.

taunton-hobbit Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 (edited) Call me confused - but Google is giving me a keyboard, not a juke? ^^^ oops - found it - possibly worth a Google search for restorers, but it ain't cheap.....

luckydog Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Restoration and repair of vintage gear is my thing. PM me, lojo. I'm assuming it's the piano, but I do jukeboxes too as it happens. LD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lojo Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Yes it is a piano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmo Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Lol. I thought it was a jukebox. A 200A is still a nice jukebox though ☺ Edited July 15, 2016 by timmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriswareham Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Google a firm called Hammond Hire. They specialise in restoring Hammond organs, Wurlitzer pianos, Rhodes pianos, and have done loads of work on my old synths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
