Wurlitzer 125 and 150 Tracker Bar Assignments
By Jody Kravitz
In digest 95.08.26, Bob Ebert asked about the note assignments for the Wurlitzer 125 and 150 rolls. Here's some information extracted from Art Reblitz' "Treasures of Mechanical Music". I'm told that Art is unsure when/if it will be reprinted. Its too bad that this wonderful book is itself a collector's item...

P.S. I do not have the octave numbers for the notes in question. If this is useful, let me know and I'll find out.
