Philco 41-246
#23

Nice, Thank you for that link. I'm going to check Lowes this weekend. The on-off on the Tone control is probably a better design, but like most, I'd like to keep it as original as possible.

Question, a previous owner replaced the speaker with a PM speaker, and added a high wattage resistor of the same value in place of the Field Coil.  I think I've read that this can be done somewhere, but was wondering if it's considered "Electrically sound" long term.
