My Brand New CTC-7!

[SwizzyMan]

Just got done staining the cabinet. Looks so much better than it was when I got it down in south Florida (Thanks again Tvcollector!) going to use some brushing shellac on it tomorrow and call this project pretty much done. Also, how much would a electronically restored and cosmetically restored ctc-7 pensbury with a good 21CYP22 sell for? I have no intentions of ever selling this set anyways just curious. Is a ctc-7 pensbury a rare set?

Don't really know how "rare" they are, but I've only seen one in person, owned by a friend, and completely original. needs full restoration now, but performed well until last year. Very pretty fruit wood (? could be walnut, but light in color) cabinet, and a bright pic on original CRT.
I have an Anderson in blonde that I restored many years ago, and now need to do it again. Have a "tests new" 21CY ready to go.
Wishing you continued luck with your Pensbury! CTC-7s are good chassis, and will hold convergence due to the wire-wound pots IMO.
