holmesuser01: I just picked up a 3 channel Motorola console made by Drexel. I don't think it's mahogony but you can have the lids if you want them. The are two lids on each side and solid peice in the middle that doesn't move. I can't take pictures of it now but will post some later. Cheers, Loren.

Eureka!
I have finally developed the pictures of the Motorola.
Loren, I apologize. I never received a notice that you had replied to this thread. Here are the pics. One is a blurry close-up of the tuner, and the other is the open speaker doors. |

Bruce,
Thats the same model i had. Your going to like it. As far as the needles go the cheapest place to find them is to sniff out Ebay. They usually have at least one NOS J-style needle going on there a week and are regularly in the $2 to $3 price range. Just do a search and type in Sonotone. -Tony |

That is a nice stereo. Good save. I hate to see these go to the dump or get parted out as most seem to be doing with them now. I picked up a 1963 Motorola console at a Goodwill a month ago. I got it for 7.00 which I thought was a bargin. The model# is skr152cw. After I cleaned the controls it works very well. It is a 3 channel with reverb. It has 11 speakers in it and about 23 tubes. The tuner is at one end and the record changer is at the other with 2 separate lids. The tuner has separate round dials for am and fm. There is a tuning eye also. The owners manual is even still with it.
