The Sounds Of Spring Break 2010

"The making of a great compilation tape, like breaking up, is hard to do and takes ages longer than it might seem. You gotta kick off with a killer, to grab attention. Then you got to take it up a notch, but you don't wanna blow your wad, so then you got to cool it off a notch. There are a lot of rules" - Rob, High Fidelity (2000)

Record Player Restoration

As you can see the original color was this gross brown, so I had to change it. Sadly I did not think to take pictures before I disassembled it.
Electronic parts.
Today decided to be as windy as a hurricane, but not until after I had already started. Yes!
I attempted to change out the old speaker with a much newer, and one of better quality, but unfortunately it had some sort of weird mounting brackets that wouldn't quite fit. I do sort of like the sound of the old speaker anyways.
Finished project. Listening to the Singing Morris Family. Haha.
Found this plate inside of the case when I took it apart. Thought it looked nice here.
With the lid on.
The paint seems to be scratching off a little to easy. (Sad face) Any ideas?
Vintage Audiotronics Educational Turntable.

1. I like that it says you have no more relationship requests, like I might possibly have more than one.

2. Thank God it told me I was in a relationship, I would have never known.

3. This makes me sad.

It's not somebody who's seen the light,
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah."
