You know your cars. The website where I stole the photo said is was a Model A. But a further looks shows it is indeed the fabled Model J from around 1930. It's still a great comparison to the late True Tone.Psssst, that's actually a Model J.
Well, both TrueTones and the model A Fords were produced in high numbers, whereas your Duesenberg .......
I also think it is unfair to compare a Buescher True Tone to a Model A Ford. I think of a True Tone should instead be compared to a 1923 Duesenberg Model A Phaeton. Both were the best America had to offer..........
Them's fighten' words there!!!:mrgreen:Of course not. They are older so therefore they belong in the garbage heap, just like all vintage horns.[rolleyes]
The model T truck didn't have a fuel pump. That's why the gas tank is mounted high behind the cab. It fed by gravity. My grandfather told me that he had to turn around and back it up steep hills to get a good enough angle for the fuel to continue to feed.The T didn't have a water pump (or any number of other goodies) because you were supposed to accessorize it yourself. There was a whole after-market industry.
I just wish I had the extra million or two (or three :|) laying around to buy one!You know your cars. The website where I stole the photo said is was a Model A. But a further looks shows it is indeed the fabled Model J from around 1930. It's still a great comparison to the late True Tone.
Even though I'm not a huge T fan, the type of after market stuff you could get for them always has interested me.The T didn't have a water pump (or any number of other goodies) because you were supposed to accessorize it yourself. There was a whole after-market industry.
Don't know why, but the snowmobile attachment sort of reminds me of the microtuner on my Conn 6M... :mrgreen:That's it. I'm trading my 2009 Honda Civic for a Model T. And I absolutely must have the snowmobile attachment for these crazy New England winters!
Oh, I don't know. The Vienna Phil still clarinetists still uses Oehler system. They sound great!This question prompted by the rash of Albert clarinet postings. :TGNCHK:
