Juke Box 45

Readily available 45rpm Juke Boxes are cool looking and fun to own and display in a home game room!

The Juke Box 45 were king until the 1980s when CD Juke Boxes CRASHED THEIR PARTY! But they're still fun to own for many reasons!

Fun To Own

Three of my siblings have 45rpm Juke Boxes. They only have good things to say about them and have rarely had problems.

The styles of those Juke Boxes vary greatly. Some are rather bland yet others can compete with the Boxes of the 1940s.

Of course you'll find the main stays like the Rockola Juke Box, the Seeburg Juke Box and the Wurlitzer Juke Box.

A good thing about these Boxes is the variety of music available. From the 1950s - 1980s for the most part. With such a wide selection of records available it appeals to people of all ages.

Unlike the older Boxes, 45 rpm boxes play more songs. Ranging anywhere from 50 up to 200 records playing both sides.

If you're creating an Elvis theme or a 50s theme then a 45rpm Juke Box would fit in perfectly. With such a large variety out there though, it's a good idea to look around for the exact style and color you like.

Like 78 rpm records don't be afraid of finding old 45rpm records. You can find them anywhere.

An internet auction is a good place to start if you're looking for something special. Otherwise rummage sales and second hand stores usually have them. And they're usually not that expensive.
