For women, it's A real-life example of this bad advertising strategy is the Dove Body Wash Ad of 2017. They claimed that he was instead using their ideas to build a competing product.

I need professional help.Bad advertising is still advertisement.
Worse is that's it's a 40 minute drive from my house. It's in remarkable shape for it's age and the BIN price is $225.very reasonable. This nice RCA Victor early true stereo is currently on ebay. I have absolutely no room for another console-type stereo.in my living room, in my bedroom or in the garage. When finished you'll have something you can really enjoy. You might be able to get an entire unit that's got a shabby cabinet and use it for parts. I've seen lots of those units for sale at sometimes cheap prices ( I mean the interior components, not the cabinet style). The mid-line stereo you have should be easy to find various parts for. Now they're one of my favorite things with asking prices going higher and higher. They were slated for oblivion anyway, people wanted components. Oddly enough, when I was given the TV/Stereo Department to buy for the Emporium, I hated consoles and couldn't wait to reduce their inventory to zero. I am always looking at console stereos for sale, especially Magnavox. I'd keep it and restore it, however, you're going to have to do a lot of the work yourself.
The cartridge and stylus aren't hard to get and should definitely be replaced. Some parts of the mechanism will need cleaning and lubrication after disassembly, others should really, really not be taken apart, just cleaned and lubed. Most of them begin with: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. There are several very well explained articles and videos on servicing that particular turntable. There are several youtube videos (shango066 has done a few with clear explanations) about working on these. If you restore the crossover network and pay careful attention to the values in any necessary work on the amp, the high end will sound good. The Astro-Sonic SS amp had several limitations, the complex crossover network and the choice of extraordinarily efficient tweeter is a clue as to one of them: Their high end was weak.

Please feel free to follow along on my Facebook page for my woodworking business, Projects820. I hope to get cracking on this piece really soon. I bought it from the daughter of the gentleman that owned it and she doesn't know exactly what year it is.

Also, if there any experts that can tell me for sure what year this is or how to find out that would be great. I am looking for advice and maybe where to start and some good resources on where to find parts and possibly service. It has only had one owner up until I bought it recently and has only gone through one move from the New Jersey area down to Texas several years ago. Structurally it looks to be in pretty good shape. I have toyed with the idea of making new knobs out of wood on my lathe and then making a new wooden faceplate for the tuner. As you can see in the pics, some of the knobs are broken so I will need to find replacements. I haven't opened up the back yet because I am getting ready to move back up to Tennessee around the Nashville area so I don't want to get to involved before shipping it. The turntable does spin but I'm sure needs a complete overhaul before throwing a good record on it. Only one speaker works at the moment, but it does pick up radio stations and play audio. I aim for this to be a focal conversation piece in our home with complete functionality. I have seen some people take these and gut them to make cabinets or dressers out of them, seriously depressing. I want to do a complete restore on the stereo cabinet back to as close to original as possible. My wife is also a very classy chick and just LOVES vinyl records so this 1966 (I think) Magnavox Astro-Sonic was an awesome find from an estate sale a few weeks ago.
I am a woodworker by trade and am always on the lookout for unique furniture pieces to work on. I found this site from doing a ton of Google searching while I am trying to research restoration ideas for a new piece I just picked up. I am new to this site and this is my first post as well.
