Title: Just picked a 1952 Seeburg 100C last week Post by: bcharlton on September 27, 2013, 11:05:28 am I have a couple of these and they are probably my favorite jukebox of the 1950s. This may be the best original I have ever ran a crossed. After only a few hours using luck and Ron Rich's Seeburg Mechanism Guide, I got everything to work. Which is pretty amazing because I am not that handy. This one will probably stay at my office until I do a complete restoration on it. Right now, I have my Seeburg 100B that I restored in my basement malt shop but I think I like the C a little better. I will check back in about a year from now when I get it done.

How is Ron Rich's Seeburg Manual? I haven't purchased one yet but it is on my to-do-list... Title: Re: Just picked a 1952 Seeburg 100C last week Post by: bcharlton on September 28, 2013, 07:56:55 am Thanks for the kind words. I know people like "originals" but I think that the Seeburgs look amazing when they are done right. I am getting better at the vanerring process. I wish I was a better carpenter. Is there anyone on the board that is a carpenter by trade and can do my cabinet ? I have already bought the tiger oak vaneer that I plan on using
If not I will have another go at it. I have done 3 and have been using an iron on oak kit. I would like to upgrade the cabinet. I get some bubbling after 5or 6 years and I want this one to be special Jim, Ron is the worlds best Seeburg guy. He has helped me on many projects and I was more than happy to purchase his mech guide It is easy to read and practical. I recommend buying it if you are a Seeburg fan Title: Re: Just picked a 1952 Seeburg 100C last week Post by: Roadman on September 28, 2013, 11:10:29 am BC, can't wait to see your finished jukebox project !

We use 3M spray adhesive for veneer work, Tedious as hell but yeah, comes out great. Title: Re: Just picked a 1952 Seeburg 100C last week Post by: bcharlton on September 28, 2013, 05:18:34 pm Thanks Kilroy. I like the 3m spray on some other projects but I did not know you can use on vaneer
