Cheap Wurlitzer Style Jukeboxes...
« on: January 31, 2006, 01:09:15 pm »
Has anyone bought or seen one of these cheap wurlitzer style jukeboxes:

http://www.familyrecroom.com/rockola-wurlitzer-style-floor-size-neon-jukebox-p-7.html

I'm sure they aren't the greatest quality, but they seem like a pretty nice price for a fun wurlitzer style juke box.  Just wondering if it's a total waste of money or what.

It also must be some sort of kit as it's only $50 to ship it (wonder if it's a total pain to put it together).  Looks like it wouldn't be too hard to pop out the cd player and put a nice little touchscreen computer in there.

Thought about taking one of these:

Click Me!

only $250 w/ $20 bucks shipping&handling and putting an mp3 player it, like an omnifi or a slimdevices or something like that.

LOL, love the description "for sound that makes you want to boogie"

I think these are the same jukeboxes except the plastic tubes.  I also don't think shipping is $20 on the one you listed, I added to my shopping cart to check and it was coming up as $49.95 for shipping.  It's also only $250 after a mail in rebate (you have to pay $270 up front).  Still a good deal.

I wonder how well this would work for my little touch screen computer, I'm really tempted to get one of these and make it work with my computer.  If I do, I'll try to let people on the forums know how the jukebox is.

I've been looking at these as well. I really want a Rockola bubbler juke, but don't have $3000-5000 to spend :)

This looks very similar to the one I got at Dave & Busters for 86k tickets...  I've thought about how to turn it into an MP3 jukebox... just haven't gotten very far with it.

They aren't very big.  40"'s high and 12"'s deep.
