Ok here goes, I know I'm new to the world of studebakers and studebaker brethren (and brethwoman) so I'm going to just throw caution to the wind and ask............are there any Frank Zappa fans out there in the studebaker community? I know that might seem a little strange, but I have my reasons (which I will divulge at a later time)

Let me guess, does this have anything to do with Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention's album "Just Another Band from LA"?

Would you believe... I just looked and found the jacket for that album but the record itself wasn't in there, it was sitting on my Studebaker turntable!
I pulled it out and listened to it a few months ago for the first time in probably decades, talk about your 70's drug music!

Wait a minute,you have a "studebaker turntable"?
Yep! And a Studebaker portable radio, a Studebaker pocket radio, and a Studebaker clock radio with a built in CD player.
A few years ago someone marketed a batch of retro styled cheap Chinese audio gear with the Studebaker name on them... I got the whole set .
My turntable came from Target for something like $60.

That stuff was indeed "cheap."
Of the four items I bought, only one works today and only partially...
