keyman27 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Anyone know a brick-and-mortar store where I can buy a replacement power cord for a Wurlitzer 200? I'm not even sure what to ask for -- it's called a 18-3 SVT, I think? Is there anything else that uses the same cord? I called a Radio Shack, the guy didn't know what I was talking about. I left my cord at a studio last week and just realized it. Wanted to use the wurli today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_tour Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Ha. Good luck is all I can say, as far as brick and mortar goes. My old 200A, sold a number of years ago, was adapted to a captive cable by some previous owner, but my only remaining model 700A can take a regular ungrounded extension cord. I had a Wurlitzer 120 a long time ago that also would accept a generic extension cord, but you probably want one that grounds the amp/preamp and fits nice and neat. Never seen one. If you've got time on your hands, it would be a major upgrade to pop one of those IEEE-standard desktop-computer-style receptacles on there, but that's kind of a PITA, at least for me. I'd say just cram an extension cord in there and call it good, at least for temporary use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxcvbnm098 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 You might have luck at an appliance repair place if one exists in your town. The longer in business they have been open the better. I seemed to recall that those cables in the day were used on some old kitchen appliances or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mate stubb Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 +1 on installing an IEC connector. Vintage Vibe sells one on their Wurli parts page.

Ledbetter Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Amazon has a bunch of them, if it's still the same standard. I searched for 18-3 SVT. Kawai KG-2C, Nord Stage 3 73, Electro 4D, 5D and Lead 2x, Moog Voyager and Little Phatty Stage II, Slim Phatty, Roland Lucina AX-09, Hohner Piano Melodica, Spacestation V3, pair of QSC 8.2s.

Delaware Dave Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Hmmm, sounds similar to the issue I had with my Howard Combo. The connecting end of the cord shorted out and I had to jury rig an end using barrel connectors about 15 years ago. It does work though.... 57 Hammond B3; 69 Hammond L100P; 68 Leslie 122; Kurzweil PC3; M-Audio Code 61; Voce V5+; Neo Vent; EV ELX112P; GSI Gemini & Burn Delaware Dave Exit 93 Band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
