Rare Antique Apparatus Rainbow Bubbler Model RB - 2 45rpm Jukebox. Serial 2
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:367181 | Year: 1987 |
| Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
In 1987 The Antique Apparatus Co. of California created this jukebox modeled after the Wurlitzer 750 of 1941. It is quite rare as there were only 76 of them made.
This is serial number 2. Serial number 1 is on display at the Rock-Ola / Antique Apparatus Headquarters.
The colorful grill with the twin bubble tubes makes for an attractive door. The lower pilasters have rotating color cylinders for animation.
As with all Antique Apparatus vinyl jukeboxes, it uses the ...Rowe/AMI record changer, computer, and amplifier.
The 130 watt stereo amplifier drives a massive Pyle 12" woofer and two 5 1/4" mid-range/tweeters.
For an extra charge, we can add an automatic Bluetooth receiver that will let you play for smartphone, tablet, Alexa or other device through the jukebox. There are multiple options to add external speakers.
It holds 100 records for 200 selections.
100 classic records with title strips are included. On either side of the title display are screened mirrors. In the photo they reflect some of the clutter in the shop.
The coin system accepts nickles, dimes, and quarters. It is programmed for free-play. You can also program it for continuous play. (Instructions are included).
This example is in very good condition. There are a few small dings along the back edges about 1/4" in size. The upper plastics are showing the beginnings of paint crazing (common with the painting process used in these).
We went through it top to bottom.
* Thorough cleaning.
* Service the record changer including a new stylus and drive belt.
* Clean the keyboard.
* New capacitors in the amplifier.
* Replace the battery in the computer.
* Replace dim lamps.
