Is there anybody out there who knows where I can get or order some vacuum tubes (i.e.- Sylvania 6l6). I am secretly refurbishing, and the keyword here is refurbishing, my mothers antique Wurlitzer juke. Offhand I don't know the specific part numbers, but I can go home and look. This would be of great importance to me, and would be a great Birthday present for her. Absolutely any information would be immensely appreciated. Please e-mail me. ADVthanksANCE, -Eric ehg@aramis.rutgers.edu

Eric--I, too, am an antique Wurlitzer jukebox owner--a model 1100, the last of the 78 RPM jukeboxes. (I suppose there are readers on this net too young to know what a 78 is!!) There are quite a few tube vendors out there. I suggest you pick up a sample copy of the Jukebox Collector, a monthly magazine of ads and articles including tube folks. There are also a number of jukebox shows around the country that are great places to pick up pieces and parts. There's probably a jukebox fixer-upper within a 100 mile radius of your home, no matter where you live. It's published in Iowa (Des Moines?) and I can get you the address if you wish.
