Hi! New here— Just wanted to stop in and see if anyone had any thoughts or materials related to a 1973 Seeburg “Drop The Disco,” specifically mine. This jukebox has been a fixture of my family’s household for almost 35 years, purchased by my mother and father at a yard sale in 1990. My dad passed away in 2022 and on the day he died this machine stopped playing records. Unfortunately he didn’t teach me nearly enough about keeping up this machine, which is what brings me here. We’ve had it repaired twice in the last two years by a local jukebox guy but he himself says he’s not all that familiar with Seeburgs like ours. We’re concerned about keeping the machine running because if we can’t I’m pretty sure we will have to give her up… and we don’t know any enthusiasts who might want her…

We can get the jukebox to turn on, it readily accepts a selection, but between accepting a selction and playing the corresponding record, the process breaks down. Sometimes it will get the record all the way to the turntable, needle hits vinyl, but no sound.

Please help keep our girl alive. Pictures to start, can provide video if you tell me where to look.

Thanks in advance!
