Hi Robert ~ I'm not in touch with the music box dealers in California, but there's a great article that would be of use to you in considering a prospective machine; not so much about the array of choices, but about assessing the cost of various mechanical issues, from minor to major, including missing teeth on the combs, etc. I see this link is for part 4 of a series on purchasing, so I would check out the other parts as well. The author is not only an authority, but writes in a very accessible and extraordinarily informative style.
