I currently have a Seeburg AY-100 and a Wurlitzer 2900. Both are working good with recapped amps. The Wurlitzer has an older 2700 amp with tubes so it sounds nice. The AY-100 is a hybrid. 4 transistors in the preamp. The Seeburg was a bitch to get the clutch unstuck. Worst one I've worked on. The third time I washed the mechanism, it finally came loose. All the Wurlitzer has needed was an amp recap and new belts. I also have a Seeburg LS-1 in pieces. It could be put back together to work again as the mechanism, amp, pricing unit, and control box have all been working within the last two years.

I've also had a Seeburg C, AMI C, and a Seeburg LS-2 which sounded like a million bucks.

I think my clutch is stuck too.

Did you use anything to clean up the speaker grille? Mine is discolored and I'm pondering how to handle it.

This one was actually quite nice which is one of the reasons why I bought it. I touched it up with steel wool but it wasn't bad at all. I've seen some pretty nasty ones.
