How is it a "rockola bubbler" if it has no Rock-Ola parts?

I lost track of the model years but what you have sounds like it is an
Antique Apparatus or a Rowe. Antique Apparatus built cabinets and used
Rowe parts until Rowe started making their own cabinets. Then Antique
Apparatus bought Rock-Ola and used the Rock-Ola name and Rock-Ola insides.

You don't have a Rock-Ola if it doesn't have any Rock-Ola parts. That
is like having a Chevy with all Ford parts.

Antique Apparatus never made a manual for the cabinet. It's difficult
to get parts. Come to think of it, if it plays 45's I think it has to
be an Antique Apparatus. Anyone out there that knows for sure? John
I'll bet you know.

If it has Rowe guts then it is indeed an Antique Apparatus, likely a
model RB-8. There is a rudimentary 7 page manual that shows how to
replace some of door parts etc. It could be labeled as an Antique
Apparatus or a Rowe. They were both bad by AA with different emblems.
Mechanical parts of the cabinet, door etc should be the same as
current models form either Rowe or Rock-Ola. When AA bought Rock-Ola,
they stopped using Rowe guts and started using RO guts. The 45 rpm
parts are probably hard to come by as they've been discontinued for
many years. If anyone wants a copy of the manual let me know. I'll
have to scan it and do a little clean up to remove some notes and
pricing info, but could probably have a PDF after the holidays.

I thought the RO name was used as soon as AA bought it and there never
was an actual Antique Apparatus with RockOla parts, it *was* a RockOla.
I know when I tried calling them they told me they are RockOla, there
is no Antique Apparatus any more, and as soon as they became Rock-Ola
they stopped all support for Antique Apparatus. They left more than 1
person out in the cold.

Hi Super I will take a copy thanks roweman

Hello Gordy,
Hello everyone else, I know this is a old post. But I was hoping for some help, or a manual. I picked up what seems to be a antique apparatus 45 bubbler. Now that's the emblem it has on the front. It also has Wurlitzer on the front door glass with no other tag but a serial number embeded in the wood on back of jukebox. If you still see the site. I would like a copy of your manual, especially if you have it in PDF. It anyway IRS available. I would also like a model number I'm guessing it called from research ( antique apparatus rb-8 bubbler 45). All help is appreciated, its working wonderful but its given me a couple if codes 18 is one but works fine. Thanks Wayne
