In the flyers, I notice different wording on the bottom - did it come with buyer's choice of wording "Strike Up The Band" or "Play - Hit Tune Of The Week"?

I know Brad Frank quite well. He does awesome work. He has restored about 7 jukeboxes for me. I've seen his band boxes and they are awesome!!! He repop's all the pieces including the gears to move the animation. Brad's # is 818-709-2157. Tell him Terry sent you.

Wow.. that looks neat..  definately outta my price range but nonetheless very cool !

I take it they just connect the same as a speaker then ? (apart from a power source)

A set of wires connects to speaker outputs on the amplifier and another set connects to the switchable source to activate "The Band" when a song is selected.

The switchable source just outputs a voltage while a song is playing then ?

Not really. It just acts as an on/off switch. Some people connect it to the pinbank, some people connect it to the tone arm so that when it goes into playing position the Band Box comes to life.

It really just depends on what the owner wants timing wise.
