You forgot the penny taped to the cartridge headshell to keep it from skating!
Do you remember...
…when Hi-fi meant the record player?
…when playing a 45 on the Hi-fi, you had to put that “doohickey” over the spindle? What is that “doohickey” called anyway? Or you inserted those other “doohickey’s” into the 45 itself, what are those called? (About the size of a poker chip.)
…you could stack multiple records, press auto and it would drop them one by one and play them, even while stacked on another!
…trying to center a 45 perfectly without the “doohickey” because you couldn’t find it? This never worked.
(Note to the younger, 45’s have a much larger whole than 33’s, so you needed a “doohickey”…can someone give a name to this?
If anyone is wondering where this is coming from, with my recent use of the Sony SCD-1, where I have to place my disc down inside, unto a spindle and place a stabilizer over it, I was having flashbacks of the old Hi-fi.
May Dad later blessed us by purchasing a Juke Box modified to play w/o money, playing 45’s was simplified by just pressing keys to play the 45’s you desired.
