price check Sonata 1050
Let me say I'm more of a pinball guy so please be gentle. I ran
across a Sonata 1050 today. Looks pretty clean, works for the most part (I'm sure it will need some sort of tweeking) but I have no idea of its value. From what little I could find it is basicly a knock off but I thought if I could get it for the right price it might look cool in the game room. I just don't want to over pay for it, any input is appreciated. Thanks, Marc |

I have some parts for the Sonata (made in Mexico after Wurlitzer closed shop in NY) - note that the Sonata used 3800 parts rather than the 3700 stuff as was used up in the Wurlitzer 1050 (W1050). Much the same otherwise, but the only real difference is the cabinet finish (pebbly on the Sonata (S1050), smooth on the W1050) and the popularity meters were always falling off on the S1050 whereas the W1050 was made as well as the regular US jukeboxes of the era.
