Stromberg-Carlson 125-H (1936)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

Stromberg-Carlson 125-H (1936)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Stromberg-Carlson of Rochester, New York, is probably known more for their design and manufacturing of telephones, but they also made very high-quality radios. Hiring the brightest engineers right out of college, their radios were brilliantly designed and flawlessly manufactured, right down to the cabinet designs. The 125-H is a gorgeous example of that. The 125-H is a five-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) AC/DC radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. All of the resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a safety fuse, power cord and new antenna lead. The radio has plenty of volume and good sensitivity across the dial. Steve stripped the cabinet, which features Rosewood, Walnut and inlays of exotic veneers. He ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The radio has the original knobs, speaker and chassis. A reproduction grille cloth was installed along with a perfect reproduction glass dial from Radio Daze. The 125-H is considered to be one of the most beautiful radios Stromberg-Carlson produced. They are very hard to find, and it's doubtful you will ever find one restored to this high level. 15"W x 9"H x 9-1/2"D.
