[Jukebox-list] Seeburg SMC3 Prelude

I have a SMC1 which has similar electronic and mechanical components. The 
biggest problem can be the computer. If the computer works great now than it 
might be a good first juke.

The mech is the good old Seeburg but there are a few added switches to allow 
computer control (no tormat here).

The amp is the SHP1. Sounds great when properly rebuilt. It can be a 
challenge to properly rebuild but it can be sent out for repair.

Cabinet or trim parts could be a problem to get. 

Older jukes can be easier to work on and repair. Initial condition is very 
important for a first time juke buyer.
