FULLY RESTORED VINTAGE 1948 RCA 78 RPM MODEL 63E RECORD PLAYER

Описание: FULLY RESTORED VINTAGE 1948 RCA 78 RPM MODEL 63E RECORD PLAYER
THE 1948 RCA MODEL 63E WAS THE LAST SELF CONTAINED COMPACT 78 RPM RECORD PLAYER OFFERED BY RCA. RCA INTRODUCED THE FIRST 45 RPM RECORD PLAYERS WITH BAKELITE CABINET THE FOLLOWING YEAR. THESE FIRST COMPACT TABLE MODEL 45 RPM PLAYERS WERE BASED ON THE DESIGN CONCEPT OF THE 63E. THE 63E HAS ART DECO STYLING OR INDUSTRIAL MODERN DESIGN WHICH HAS VERY SIMPLE AND CLEAN GEOMETRIC LINES. A VERY UNIQUE RETRACTABLE TONE ARM ALSO FUNCTIONS AS THE ON/OFF POWER SWITCH, AND THE VOLUME CONTROL KNOB IS HIDDEN BENEATH THE TONE ARM.
THE 63E HAS ITS OWN BUILT IN AMPLIFIER AND SPEAKER AND DOES NOT NEED TO BE PLUGGED INTO AN EXTERNAL AMP OR SPEAKER. THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO SOMEONE’S COLLECTION OF RCA 45 RPM PLAYERS TO SHOW THE EVOLUTION OF THE COMPACT PLAYERS.

THIS 63E SERIAL NUMBER B035225 WAS MANUFACTURED IN 1948 AND HAS AN RS-127 CHASSIS.

THE RESTORATION INCLUDED A COMPLETE DISASSEMBLY OF ALL SECTIONS OF THE RECORD PLAYER INCUDING A THOUROUGH CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT OF THE WORN PARTS.

THIS FULLY RESTORED RCA 63E WILL BE LISTED ON EBAY AT AUCTION FROM 8/15/24 TO 8/22/24.

THE OVERALL MEASUREMENTS ARE 12” W x 9” D x 6” H.
