Thanks. Yeah, they look better than the veneer, I think. The wood is a 1/4" thicker so I'm lucky I made it with the original screws.

It is funny you say that. The original stone foundation dates to 1787, the original building was burned in 1970, I have a picture of it I will post. When I was 10 my father and uncle rebuit it into a cow barn. I have a picture of that too. People always get "vibes" from the place, most good. There is a story of a farmer who died in a blizzard in there milking the cows. I have never had any "encounters" in there, even when I was feeling no pain! The pictures are in the studio for people to look at.

Hahaha Yeah I get em In my basement all the time! Well keep the good vibes going!

This is the only (working) one I have :|
"Change my pants" that's what I did when I had the chance to buy it. Here is a little history on the deck from the Stereophile article using the "Jack Mullin Special" . Interview with Kavi Alexander about the origins of the deck and the De Paravicini head stack.

Holy Frickin Cow, Dude!
That first one must double as a space heater. No need for petty appliances.
It looks like the type of thing that Bing Crosby would be peeking out around from.
I like the long string of splitters and adapters that end in a single junction.
The calendar is only 35 years out of date. Matches the equipment perfectly!
