melvind Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I thought a video of a Victor No. 10 reproducer would make an interesting video. Then I thought it would be even more interesting if it also showed the reproducer that replaced the No. 10 as well. I had never heard a No. 10 reproducer before today. I recently picked one up and immediately sent it to Wyatt Markus to rebuild. He does such good work (and such fast returns) and I could not be more pleased or surprised at the result. Thanks Wyatt! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valecnik Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I know the 10 is super rare and really beautiful but the Exhibition is definitely an improvement, isn't it. Oh and the most attractive horn option for the Vic 6 has got to be that rubberized paper mache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvind Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Yes the horn is the rubberized paper mache horn. It was restored a few years ago mostly because the rim was worn and damaged. But, it looks great and is period correct on an early Vic VI with a No. 10 reproducer. A wonderful combination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auxetophone Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I want a No. 10 so bad...but a gently used Rolls-Royce Silver Spur is cheaper. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvind Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 ? kinda true! I just finally did it. No Union show so I had some $$$! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auxetophone Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 By the way, that's a great video, I love the detail. I have never heard a No. 10 actually play, it's far better then I expected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinfoilphono Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I would dearly love a #10............... I agree that it sounds surprisingly good, but the Exhibition is better. I should be happy with my Exhibition, but darn, that #10 is just such delicious eye candy. Someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilvanstem Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I don't get around much so never saw a #10 nor a round hole exhibition. Both are desirable if you ask me. Love the looks of that #10. A beauty for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
