I will ask him to post a rear photo and ask if he thinks the neck is broken. I got a funny feeling it is. In a about a month I will have a greater budget but at this time I am spending my limit on another set so I can't take this '64 if it goes any higher in price as I also have to rent a U-haul to get it. I imagine this seller could have a very high reserve and with his friend bidding it up I am not going to bid more than the $51.00 it is at now. Maybe I will bid $52.58(I put .58 usually cause it's the year my dad graduated and more than .50) just to outbid Polaraman if we all continue to let me take the set. I think I should wait til last minute to bid. Maybe the seller will relist it if reserve is not met, maybe he will allow the highest bidder to take it even if the reserve is not met. I would love to have the set but it would also be cool if Polaraman gets it. If I get it I will post all photos of set interior, etc. throughout the restoration. Then I would use it until I get a Danish-Contemporary version or an armoire RCA home entertainment center from about '68 because the brochure states: "Amplifier in Armoire models delivers an awsome 300 watts peak power with extremely smooth frequency response from 30 to 20,000 cps. Amplifier rating in lowboy models is 120 watts peak power with frequency response of 35 to 20,000 cps." The lowboys look the best to me and the armoire is not good-looking to me but I love great sound! Also, the TV control area on those models is neat looking having that tall door to cover the tuner knobs, etc(CTC-30?). So, then I would sell the restored '64 at a low price.
