Machine is not perfect, no CPR shape. However, the backglass is nearly perfect with no fade and very bright colors. Playfield has a scratch and is worn on the topside of the bumpers. No wear spots are deep and I am sure some acrylic will fix it.

When I got the machine I sanded and polyurethaned all the oak, turned out beautiful !! Legs were Fair, painted them with a silver paint that has small flecks in it, turned out well. Game has no errors and plays as a 60's EM should. I have no room and need it gone to a good home.

Nice to see mention of a woodie on this site I love 'em, and if I were closer I'd be round with the cash... That's a few 4200 miles closer by the way...

If you were closer, I'd buy it. And I already have one? It's just a cool machine and I find it to be very fun. Williams last full production wood rail. I have mine set up next to my 1960 Jungle. Two machines from the same manufacturer and year but what a contrast in cabinet design.

If you were in Boise Idaho I would snap it up for $500.00 as it is a keeper!

You should have it sold soon.

If shipping weren't as much as the machine, I'd have you ship that beautiful thing out here to California, so's I could put it next to my Williams Fan-Tas-Tic from '72. I love playing Serenade, and the pirate girls are hot. Dang.

I'd be interested. Could you deliver to NYC? No rush, but I could send payment first. lmk

Nice looking game. I was under the impression that all the wood rail games were single player, but I stand corrected.

Nice job on the restoration.

Your Serenade EM looks very nice!
I picked mine up for $550.00, (First pinball machine..)Although it has a long way to go, (player match reel missing, bad relay coils, etc.) It is still playable.
I absolutely love it! and consider it to be a great purchase, nothing beats the craftsmanship of an old EM machine.
Hope you can find a good home for her.

That is a beautiful machine.
