Title: Help! Rock-ola 490-1 Pinouts
Post by: D_Zoot on July 25, 2004, 11:36:41 am
I know this site is geared more toward emulation,  but I'm asking all around !! ???

Anybody have or know where I could snag power supply pinout information for a Rock-ola 490-1 (Supersound 2)  Juke ???

I'd love to get this puppy running so I can add it to my game room..   ;D ;D


Thanks,
D

You can buy brand new manuals for that machine at www.victoryglass.com

Those are not some cheap photocopies either. They sell professionally offset printed new manuals and are worth every penny. They include schematics. In fact, Victory Glass bought out the remaining new old stock of all of Rockola's 45 rpm jukebox parts. The Rockola factory (which is now in Los Angeles and is owned by Antique Apparatus) only has parts for the CD and download jukeboxes.

Thanks Ken.  I'll be ordering one soon.

In the meantime,  I did get the rig sorted out and running and installed in the game room.  Man, how perfect having an early 80's Juke in with the 80's vids !   It's too cool..    

Now if only my daughter would only stop rolling her eyeballs when I crank 80's tunes on it I would be all set..    ;D

You know, it's interesting how open information is in regards to the vids and I was dismayed to find out that the Juke community is rather closed here on the net.  I don't say that as a jab at the juke guys, it's just interesting to note.   That manual will be a must-have if I'm going to keep this old hunk running.

You'll find that they copyrights are still enforced on jukeboxes and Rock-ola is still in business. The manual and parts reproduction rights were assigned to Victory Glass for the 45rpm vinyl jukeboxes.
