Stradivaro De Luxe
 
1 Attachment(s)
For years I only collected Singer and Kenmore machines. But this Stradivaro was a good buy and looked interesting. I am looking for a manual or one that is comparable to it. The model no. is J-A31 3166. From what I can tell, it has a left homing needle. Something I've never had before also. At least I haven't found anywhere to adjust the needle position. Would appreciate any info out there. Thanks so much!

If the needle position is adjustable, it has another lever with LMR on it, yours does not have that so it would be left homing.

That is a nice looking machine! I love all the variations of these - all the "deluxe zigzag" machines.

Wow! It looks like a 1950s caddy! I love it.

That is a really COOL looking machine! That's exactly the kind of machine I want to find. I love the red arrowhead on the knob, and the blue body paint. Very nice find!

Previous owners took good care of it.

Neat looking machine!

That's not the model number it's a manufacturing code and the serial number. It's a beauty.

I think there's a yahoo group for Japanese machines. I think they also have a list of the manufacturers and JA codes. Code JA-31 should tell you who made it. Someone here probably knows too.
