Mike Craw Report post Posted February 17, 2011 I have found several mentions of the Luberto Classic, both hand-crank and powered on this site with several references to "expensive" but I haven't found any ads online or in print that actually mention the price. Does anyone know the current list prices for the hand-crank and powered Classics? Thanks, Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Report post Posted February 17, 2011 Hi Mike, I'm just not sure. A few folks here have tried to get in touch with Tony of late with little if any success. He might just be on vacation or something; January and February are the pits in the sewing machine business. Generally, Classics are both motor and crank, you just have to pull a pin out of a pulley shaft in the back to change over. I have an ASE No.9, which is quite similar, and the going price for a good one of those (used) is as high as $3,800. For that price, I would add a thousand or so and get a Campbell. Both machines will do harness all day, all night, they can do other work too. Ron at Ferdco might know what Tony is up to.

Mike Craw Report post Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Thanks Art. Now I have a frame of reference for the word "expensive" that I have seen used. Mike Edited February 17, 2011 by Mike Craw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

awharness Report post Posted February 17, 2011 Last I heard the Classic was around 5k for the head and 6k with the stand and speed reducer, I have been trying to get in touch with Tony as I picked up a #9 off of here from Mike in Long Island and I want to get a left toe, and a raised throat plate... anyone have any accessories they want to part with for the #9? -Andrew The Luberto Classic Club hand crank one is advertised in the LC&SJ for $1,195 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

awharness Report post Posted January 7, 2014 The specs are the exact same as the classic, only thing different are the presser feet and some bushings and minor tweaks from what tony luberto told me. I run juki 441's and knock offs in my shop, so this beauty just sits! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
