Detrola 146-E (1937)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Detrola 146-E (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Detrola used the same model number for several similar radios in any given model year. The 146 model was a basic six-tube chassis placed in six or seven different cabinets. The 146-E designation sets had a tuning-eye tube, making them a seven-tube set. The "E" designation appears to be consistent year to year. The 146-E is a seven-tube, three-band (SB,SWx2) radio. Blake replaced all of the capacitors. He checked the resistors and tubes, replacing where needed. He installed a new power cord, antenna lead, safety fuse and an audio cable for your external device. The set plays with great sensitivity across the "stationized" dial. The tuning eye is bright and active. Gary stripped the walnut cabinet, and using the finest paint, grain filler and lacquer ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, dial scale, speaker and chassis are original. A new, crystal-clear dial cover from Mark Palmquist was added. A new, reproduction grille cloth was installed. This beautiful, fully restored Detrola is ready for your collection! Make it yours today! 19"W x 11-1/2"H x 9"D.
