    Beautiful chime. I have this in my home, mine is 1959 December-and it’s original to the house.I grew up in that house and every time the doorbell goes off I have this flood of memories of my childhood and being obsessed with that doorbell. In fact, that chime is the reason I play the piano-when u was 6 years old I went to the piano and tried to play the sound the doorbell chime made.

    Could it be that my doorbell shopping is finally over? I know this video is 9 years old, but I've been trying to find a quality doorbell for my new home for 9 months. Nine dang months in my custom build and I cannot find anything but absolute garbage on the market. This looks like what I've been searching for. Are the doorbells only available with the ding-dong sound or do they come with the Westminster tone as well? It isn't a deal breaker. Quality is my #1 mission. You don't put a crappy $40 doorbell in a really nice home. It just makes a really bad first impression in my opinion.
