Gramophone His Master's Voice model 4
« on: April 04, 2013, 09:56:13 am »
Hello!

I recently found a gramophone, His Master's Voice model 4. I searched google about that model..but couldn't find anything,so I wonder if you guys could help me and advice me if it's any worth :) . It's a little dusty..but my grandfather told me that it ,,can sing''.Unforcenately it does't offer any other information on box or it's back.

Thx for you're time..have a nice day and please sorry for my english.

Bigwull, you destroyed Aqualung? I actually thought it was your bio! That's OK! Don't walk away uneasy!

I am talking about Ian Anderson, your countryman who makes some of the best kippers and salmon on the planet. I hope your kidding. Maybe you meant iron lung.

The last time I saw Jethro Tull in concert he was recovering from a stroke. Need I say more! ;D ;D
Is this a portable Victrola?

(My old vinyl resides in a big box in a horse trailer.
I would hate to admit that it contains everything from Frank Z to Frank I. :P  ::))
