I Have No Idea How to Fix This, But Let's Try. 1961 Seeburg Jukebox
Вставка

- If you know how to fix these things, then this video was probably painful to watch. I've never messed with a jukebox of any kind, but this was a deal I couldn't pass up. It might've taken me a while and a lot of clueless thinking, but at the end of the day this thing is working. I may make a part two on this considering it still needs glass, locks replaced, all the capacitors should be replaced, and the mechanism is still gunky with old grease.
Chapters:
00:00 - Intro/picking it up
02:06 - First look/getting it open
06:57 - What's in the coin bank?
07:43 - Powering it up/looking around
10:30 - Does it work? No
12:08 - Maybe just dirty connections?
13:23 - Dirty points? Try the easy stuff first, huh.
14:21 - Looking closer at the electronics. Maybe I can spot some bulged capacitors?
17:26 - Taking it apart further
18:48 - Getting somewhere, finally
22:16 - That's one thing fixed
24:53 - replacing a capacitor in the "pulse amp"
26:30 - Does it work now?
28:07 - More cleaning up and putting it back together
35:42 - Having some fun with my camera
37:53 - Bonus - Розваги
Just think of all the good times people had with and around that machine. The stories it could tell. It's truly a piece of history/ memories. Very neat.
You are the best mechanic on UA-cam and fun to watch!
Dude, we were all rooting for you.
You're a rockstar! Swap them neons for LEDs and load that baby up with some good old classic Rock and metal 🤘 . Simon you're a inspiration for many!!!
There are two main things that keep me coming back to your videos. Firstly, they are extremely well filmed. They may be longer than the algorithm would like, but they never seem long because you make every shot interesting. Secondly, your calm, patient approach to problems. Even in the case of a jukebox, a mechanical nightmare that you have no previous experience with, you are carefully working your way through the various mechanisms learning the way things work as you go. Like other commenters, I would recommend rounding up a service manual (mostly because there will be a lot of adjustments that won't be immediately intuitive) but it's fascinating watching you return the Seeburg to working condition just by using logic and your knowledge of basic mechanisms. I'm so glad that I found your channel and believe me I subscribed almost immediately! I will add my voice to those who want a Part 2 on the Seeburg one day.
Everything about your channel is amazing. I'm glad I found you. Actually you're my new favorite find on this site. I love your cinematography, I can tell you appreciate film and how it's achieved. Great work, Simon.
Thank you very much!
Yess! Please give us a part 2!
Nice pickup, Simon! You're on you way to being a jukebox restorer. The mechanisms in those Seeburg boxes can play over a million selections in their life spans. If you want to go wild, get a service manual and it will give you most of everything you need to know about maintenance and lubrication. Total recapping is not always necessary to get good performance.
That's an awesome find. I remember Old jukeboxes like that as a kid being jist about everywhere, from cafe's, pool halls, beer joints etc. Nowadays You almost never see one of any kind, or if You do, it's some electronic thing that just streams stuff.
Great vid man, the algo reccomended the newest vid of the Squarebody drive home, and I'm digging everyrhing else. Absolutely brilliant cinematography.
Digital is great but you just can't duplicate the sound from the tube amplifier in that ole juke box. The lightning of that thing and a dimly lite environment plus the record selections create and ora that is seldom experienced today. Nice work.
Thank you
Awesome video. This reminds me of the time I did this same exact thing with my 79 Caddy to go pick up a washing machine before I had a truck.
That's a great picture to imagine.
Probably not your type of music, but that was one of my favorite songs when it came out. Before she became too trashy. The blue record was cool. Very nice fix Simon.
Part 2 would be fun to watch. That Madonna record sounded like the newest record out of the ones you played..1986
Way to go man ! Fixed that bad boy !
That is so awesome Simon, i wouldnt remember where half the parts go and i would be afraid of getting zapped lol
That thing is kick ass! Nice find man!!
I'll gladly second everything @MrMurraypants said. Plus, you look like you stepped right out of 1978 - and as a child of the 70s...I can dig it. Discovered you by the old Ford trucks, but found so much more. Keep up the good work. Oh also, LOVED the short films, excellent job.
Thank you very much
The capacitors underneath the amp chassis are likely pooched. Check each resistor as well for out of tolerance resistance. Deox all the controls and multiwire connectors.
The jukebox hero😂u have one thing i domt posess patience
Maravilloso 😊👍👍👍
super sick
Nice '65 Ford Galaxie (?) too
6:37 solid
get some deoxit spray and clean the electrical terminals.
I used some similar electronic safe spray and hit most of them.
Amazing how you bring back a machine that plays 45 s
охренеть, он ламповый😳
Хозяин канала тоже ламповый. Как будто вылез из машины времени, из 70-х.
🤩
Привіт! В тебе дуже круті відео! Особливо мені подобаються про авто та мототехніку. На яку камеру ти знімаеш?
Just like candy shop I worked in kids everyday came in to play the jukebox
fun
😁👍👍
Simón saludos .Esa rocosa no la vendas déjala para tu casa.
This thing didn’t happen to come with any Gunna records did it? Haha joking 😂 good video
LMAO.
You should’ve hit G7.
