'51 Buick Sonomatic Radio repair

[Kestrel]

 

If anyone is looking for a very reasonable repair on their Sonomatic or other make of tube radio, I just had Robert Pacini of Precision Radio Repair, Utica, NY rebuild mine. His email : oldstereo@hotmail.com. 

 

He performed basically a stock rebuild with enhanced bass and treble response and an iPod/iPhone jack for less than $300.00. I had it back in less than 2 weeks. It works and sounds terrific.

 

I was considering a full electronic conversion for a lot more $$ but decided to stay with the original sound and found Robert after searching this forum so this is more of an update on his existing service. He's old school, very helpful, and pleasant to deal with.
