Description
We've Got More Than 60 Jukeboxes! All Professionally Reconditioned!With 90 Day Parts/Labor Warranties. jukeboxesunlimited.com 1946 AMI Jukebox Model A This magnificent music machine is affectionately known as the “Mother of Plastic”. Built in 1946 by AMI (Automatic Musical Instruments still in business today as Rowe International) it has become a very rare and highly desired instrument of beauty. Only 12,000 were produced. In comparison, 115,000 of the Wurlitzer 1015 “Bubbler” were built the very same year. A promotional gimmick for the “A” was the placement of a 15” speaker in the top of its nearly 6’ high cabinet as giving it the ability to “reach everyone in the room”. Competitors jukeboxes had the speaker low in the cabinet and thus all the music would only get to the first table of people before it died out. To get the music around, remote speakers had to be put up on the walls, but the AMI sound would go out over the people and extra speakers were not necessary. Functionally, this machine was much simpler than its competitors and able to play both sides of a record. Although seemingly heavy, this tower tall juke was 100 pounds less than competitors machine.
