How to build
an unstoppable lIIathine.
For years we've been building jukeboxes that
run and run and run without stopping. Nobody
else seems to be able to do it. So th is year,
we thought we'd tell you how.
Start with an extremely durable, dependable record
changer. Like our famous Rock-Ola Revolving Record
Magazine. Add a l00 - watt -output amplifier, to provide
enough power for any location. Give it 100% solid-state circuilry
for reliability. Use plug-In circuit boards for easy maintenance.
Protect the mechanism from
overheating and overloading by
installing sensing devices
that shut down the machine
3t the first hint of trouble .
attention-getting it pulls in customers non-
stop. We make it easy to operate by placing all
selection cont rols together in a single strip at
eye level across the program panel. And we
make sure every component is readily
accessible by allowing the entire top and
front of the machine to swing wide open.
We give it a 160-selection capacity, and call it
the Model 460. Or we trim 7 inches off the
sides, give it 100 selections, and iI's the Model 459
-perfect for places where space is limited. For
sophisticated locations, we surround our unstoppable
mechanism with a long, low polished-wood-Iook cabinet,
executed in burn-proof polyester. We give
it a full-size lid that opens to reveal a
new Customer Convenience
Center. And we give the front
eleganl cathedral-look
speaker grilles that com-
plement any decor. Then we
add a full-color , framed
paimlng Inside the lid and
call the machine the Model
456. It too handles
They make sure small
problems never get to be
big ones. And Instead of
dirty, flow-through air
vents, equip your machine
with vanes that conduct heat
through the walls, to give you a
totally-sealed cabinet.
Think that was hard? Try installing your
basic mechanism in a cabinet that is both
fantastically attractive-and so rugged it'll endure
almost any abuse. A cabinet like ours.
For most locations, we build a dynamic,
brightly-colored cantilevered cabinet thaI's so
160 selections. And this year, every
,
part on the 456 is interchangeable with those on our other models-
eliminating stock problems.
Just having unstoppable jukeboxes isn't enough. You need
wallboxes that are attractive, functional, and easy to operate. Like
our Model 506 Wallbox . 11'5 pageless-just give the triangular program
holders a turn or two, and make a selection. The 506 coordinates
with any Rock-Ola , old or new.
So thaI's It. Now you can build your own unstop-
pable machine. One so rugged , 11'11 take any punish-
ment. Yet so attractive, it'll make non-stop profits.
But now that you know how-why bother? After all,
we've got three unstoppable Rock-Ola 's. And one
of Ihem is just right for you .
