Look what appeared on my porch today. 610 B . I initially didn't want a shouldered model, but this one will do fine. Couldn't pass up one not worked over that was reasonably-priced.
The seller did as I requested and removed the speaker and mounted it to a piece of wood, ( Thanks to Kirk for that invaluable piece of info!!!)
In the seller's ad, the cabinet looked sorta rough for some reason, but now I think it was just light reflections, because it doesn't look bad at all in the flesh. I don't think I need to touch the cabinet too much ...maybe new grill cloth after I restore it electronically. ( I'll start another thread under electronic restoration when I dig into the back of it.) One of the knobs was replaced with some odd knob, but the seller included the original in an envelope on the shipping box. ( I've placed it back on the shaft for the pics here) It's missing it's small metal piece under the set screw, but I don't think that will be too difficult to correct.
I wanted a tombstone to juxtapose with the 89, and compare and contrast the two designs. I'm happy!
