Seems that after many of those machines left the factory the retail dealers swapped the mechanisms to make customers happy with the color of the machine.

Jerry is correct about mixing a 1A and a III, but a 1B uses the same mechanism as 
the III.  Even so, the number stamped into the III mechanism will not match that on 
the 1A/B cabinet.  This sort of mixing&  matching permanently separates 
mechanisms and cabinets, preventing the proper restoration of the original 
machines.  I'd advise against it.

Subject: [Phono-L] Amberola I vs III innards




Does anyone happen to know how much difference there is between the guts of an

Amberola I and a III?  Hoping to do a swap into a Amberola I cabinet from a

messed up III I have...



Thanks...
