•Concerning the Seeburg film, I believe this was found by Claes O. Friberg in Europe, and I think a copy was shown at a convention here. I do remember seeing it. Probably a copy exists Stateside somewhere. Dave Bowers

•Can anyone identify any or all of the Seeburg G files on YouTube posted by Roberts Musical Restorations, including the un-numbered file http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-6Gr9Yzr2M&feature=related and those numbered 1 through 9, and the G-roll from which they were made? I would like to try to buy a c...

•I feel this is the "G" roll you are talking about. It's a Play-Rite recut, G-819, called "Favourite Dance Hits". The tunes on my copy are numbered 1 through 10. The titles given are 1 - Animal Crackers 2 - Red Red Robin 3 - Good Night - fox trot 4 - Sleepy Head - waltz 5 - Tenderly 6 - Harlem Choco...

•The "G" roll mentioned in yesterday's MMD is G-819 and has the following tune lineup (if the roll has a "name" or title it is not shown in the database): #1 Animal Crackers #2 When the Red, Red, Robin Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbin' Along #3 Good Night (I'll See You In The Morning) #4 Sleepy Head (1926) #5...

•I'm buying a Seeburg G clone built up using Seeburg components from a very fine Wurlitzer Mortuary Piano that Harvey Roehl found new and never sold, abandoned in the Wurlitzer factory. It plays G-rolls very well, but needs a case built for it. I had intended to build a Seeburg G case with Seeburg G...

•I'm currently working on a Seeburg E coin piano for a customer which is missing the two connecting rods from the crankshaft to the pump bellows. Apparently someone electrified it when the pumps stopped working. Since the flywheel/crankshaft needs to turn to power the transmission and drive the roll...

•Hi All, I am starting to gradually increase the selection of factory manufactured CD's I offer and I wanted to let you know about this 3 CD set I have available for pre-order.

•Recently I visited Don Teach and saw the items he listed for sale in 091118 MMDigest first hand. They are beautiful! Don is a true craftsman when it comes to metalwork for our old machines. His reproductions are equal to or better than the original parts. If you even remotely think you may need som...

•Hello, I'm a collector in Sweden. I just bought a Seeburg KT (with flute pipes) and would like to buy music rolls for my machine (G-rolls?). Andreas Szekely Sweden

•Help! I was having trouble with one of the valves controlling the coin accumulator pneumatics in my Seeburg model K, so I took the valve block out and, of course, made a nice tubing diagram of all the tubing connections. Now, after cleaning some debris out of the valve block and it appears to be wo...

•Hi all, in the process of rebuilding a Seeburg xylophone for my late (1928) Seeburg E nickelodeon, I discovered that the xylophone bars are tuned to A=435 Hz as opposed to the later day 440 Hz. Is it easy to tune the bars to 440 Hz or is it better to tune the piano to 435 Hz? The xylophone and regu...

•I restored a Seeburg L in 2009 and my piano technician, who was re-stringing it, wanted to tune it to A=440, so I posed the question to Art Reblitz. He confirmed that virtually all orchestrions, apart from Nelson-Wiggen, stuck with A=435 till they ceased production in 1929. So your xylophone is rig...

•Without exception, every Seeburg E or K that I have seen playing a xylophone had a J.C. Deagan xylophone tuned to A=435. It is ever so slight a drop in pitch compared to A=440. I would never try to retune to A=440 an old xylophone that was originally made as A=435. I have a xylophone in my collecti...

•Hello, there seems to be confusion about A=435 Hz and A=440 Hz tuning. The 1937 international symposium on tuning adopted as standard 435 Hz at 15 degrees centigrade. This had been used by the majority of builders (but not all) for some years. This is very close to 440 Hz at 20 degrees centigrade, ...

•[ Ed Skehan wrote in 110325 MMDigest: > I have seen a 608 and a 699 with Irish music but they are not > for a model B Seeburg. I have to wonder what kind of rolls were 608 and 699.

•Does anyone know where I can get schematics or some kind of instructional manual for repair of my Seeburg KT with mandolin, piano and xylophone? Karl Pasten Yakima, Washington
