Stumbled across this on Craigslist:

Not an exciting set by any means, but I didn't see it listed in the gallery here. There's a 49-1600 shown, but not a 49-1601.

I suspect the only difference between the two is the 1601 has the two-armed phonograph to play 78 and 33 1/3 rpm, while the 1600 just has the standard 78 rpm player.
Ron has the 49-1600 and 46-1601 listed together.  His comments on the 49-1601 are as follows:

"The 1601 includes a two-speed (33-1/3 and 78 rpm) record player with two tone arms (one for LP, one for 78 ). It is otherwise identical to the 1600."
Corrected. Thanks.
Never seen that model before. Very rectangular Icon_smile
