Hi Folks, Thanks for Hildegard Stamann (along with Bill Butterfield, Jukeland, and a few other individuals) I have added quite a few more Service Slants to the site. I'm not watermarking these and am probably going to remove the watermarks from the ones I did too when I get around to it... A bunch from the 40s including one on refinishing the 1100's door! flippers.com Wurlitzer USA Service Bulletins and more! <#> 🔗 https://flippers.com/Wurl_USA.html <https://flippers.com/Wurl_USA.html> I'm also looking at making them into a single downloadable zip file so you can archive them all at once. If you have any Service Slants that are missing please send me scanned copies - 300 DPI minimum - to JRR(a)FLIPPERS.COM Missing: W: 1-132, 133-171, 174, 175, 186, 187, 191, 218, 263, 265, 273, 278, 279, 282, 283, 285, 287, 288, 289, 290, 313, 317, 318, 319, 321-327, 351, 372, 374, 376, and 382 or later.

Rock-Ola 1434 cartridge wiring
by Tony Miklos 02 Aug '25

02 Aug '25

If you aren't familiar with this machine, it has 1 tone arm that goes high or low to play each side of the record with a cartridge on the top and the bottom. It uses two 51-1 cartridges. Much to my surprise, the two cartridges are wired in series. I'm planning on putting 2 new carts on it and wondering if I should put them in series or parallel. I'm surprised it works with two in series, being that they are ceramic. I forgot to look to see what the input resistor is and it's value is not on the schematic. I forgot to mention that the top and bottom cartridges are NOT wired to a switch to get a signal from only one cart at a time like Wurlitzer did. It's not the end of the world if my first attempt might not work well, but the reason behind this is boggling to me. I'll be using the Crosley cartridges as nice fitting replacements and will connect their (stereo) outputs parallel like I normally do. Not that it matters, but the machine is set to play 45's and it will stay that way. -- Tony Miklos Tony's Jukebox Repair

Wurlitzer OMT CD
by Tony Miklos 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

Are all the control boards on these interchangeable? I have an old box that long ago I upgraded from the old style laser to the newer Pro Player and up. The player acts exactly like it it bad. Spinning, stopping, spinning backwards eventually returning the cd to the carousel. I thought for sure it was the player, but that tests good in my test box at the shop. Any ideas what may be wrong. I was so sure it was the player that I didn't troubleshoot it any further. Dumb move, I know. It's just that I've never run into one that had a problem with the cd player that wasn't the player itself. I don't even know if the control board(s) are interchangeable or not all the same or who fixes them. -- Tony Miklos Tony's Jukebox Repair

Title strips in python
by Julie Mitchell 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

I got tired of tweaking existing label printouts to fit the format of my perforated sheets, so I ended up writing something myself. Below you can see the output, which scales the text when needed. You can drop whatever label style you want in there, or leave that blank. Are there some others here who know how to run python and would help me test this out before I distribute it? Please email me at julie.mitchell@gmail rather than reply to the group. All the best, Julie

780 blows fuse
by ascott822＠aol.com 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

Sorry I’m late getting back. The box blows amp fuse when record comes up. Was suggested to pull the 5Z3 and see if it still happens. No, the fuse doesn’t blow when the tube is out of the amp. Where should I go from here or what test might I perform to identify the issue? The amp has new caps from 3 years ago.Has worked with no issues until recently. Thanks.

Re: Who is making these?

End of 2023, Sound Leisure and Gudrun Wurlitzer found a license agreement for the name "Wurlitzer" to produce the "Wurlitzer 1015 Tribute" jukebox. https://soundleisure.com/sound-leisure-wurlitzer-tribute-1015/ Gibson doesn't own Wurlitzer any more, Wikipedia is not up to date it seems. The German Wurlitzer company, belonging for Gibson, is gone since March 2016 already. In 2018 Gibson filed for insolvency which luckily it could be prevented finally. But I think they gave up the Wurlitzer section at that time. The trademark law was then taken over by Gudrun Wurlitzer, her daughter and her son in 2020. They all belong to the German branch of the Wurlitzer family, and Gudrun Wurlitzer is co-owner of the "Herbert Wurlitzer clarinet manufacture". Kind regards - Hildegard

Wurlitzer 780 blows amp fuse

The fuse in my 780 amp blows as the mech rises to play a record. Amp works fine out of the box. Mechanisms works as it should but the amp fuse blows. Suggestions? Thanks, Allen Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

780 amp blows fuse

I’m still trying to trace down the issue. Box was playing fine a month ago. Recently it blows amp fuse as record comes up. In trial and error tests I have found that it doesn’t blow with speaker unplugged. Suggestions. Thank you, Allen Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS
