Looking for advice on an LPC480

indeed - when I'm ready to buy a fresh pair (soon I hope), I'll be calling around and getting the scoop. but I still have a ways to go on mine just getting it to to behave right! it seems I wrongly assumed that anything that costly must be NOS.

Ron and Rob-NYC,

Got it. I had thought that the glass fuse 'fix' was just a temporary thing until the juke was working again and then pop in the proper red-cap. If I can carry on using the glass 5A then that's fine by me.

On another note, here's an album of the pictures taken when I went to look at it the first time, http://s1376.photobucket.com/user/Radioguy65/library/Seeburg%20LPC480/First%20Impressions.

I'll be picking it up this Sunday. I'll need to replace the casters on it before it moves into the house but it's already got a home in the living room, complete with spousal sign-off.

Cheers,

Thom Smith
