Hi
I'm sure it's not if its the type I'm thinking of, your festival 160 uses a carriage without a rubber band drive belt
The Carriage you need is used in the Prestige es 160 ( not the es 160 2) the city 1 and the es 160 hideaway
It has a sure needle and a metal tone arm not a black tone arm used on later models
Good Luck

Hello Tim,
Do you have the trailing ribbon cables that go to the mechanism still on the jukebox or you need to locate these as well?
As a reference I would visit the Stamann website
www.jukebox-world.de and look into their Archive section to look at relevant information on your model of NSM jukebox.
Regards

Thank you for the info, I believe I have the ribbon cables still. I may currently have a chance to obtain a carriage from a US supplier, so going to see how that goes.

Hi Tim That picture is the correct carriage and the ribbon trailing cable should be grey in colour

Hi Laurence, Tim,
Keep in mind that a "replacement cable" may have been made, of different color cable---

Thank you all! Will have to take a look at my juke again, planning to transport it from my temporary storage to home this weekend. I believe all the original cabling is in the unit currently. Just waiting to hear good news that John at Jukebox Parts has a carriage.

Hi, I have the Es 160 and it looks the same... Do you have any idea of the voltage value for the Varistors VR100 & Vr101?

Hi
The carriage in the photo is the same as in models from the latter part of the seventies and early eighties ES II technology. If your festival is a 130 it may be the model from the late sixties and is belt driven and the above carriage in the photo won't suit.

Think its very early 80's model... bit of a Starwars vibe about it
