Its unique feature is.. the absence of electrical power source!Β

A gramophone works without electrical power.
Just simple mechanics, a clockwork a needle a membrane and a horn.

That's true.
You didn't know how a gramophone works?
Gramophones were common until the early 1950s in Europe and in the Soviet Union
and in India up to the 1970s.
I have three and a lot of 78 rpm shellac records. The sound is wonderful nostalgic.

Well, I knew, how-it-works actually
(Btw, it wasn't the first implementation of sound playback device - first prototypes were based on rotating cylinder, not the flat disc.)
Just a funny observation from today's era of electronics everywhere

No Bryce necessary; the model can be used in almost each 3d rendering program.
I guess you need a PNG picture with a transparent background?
Tell me what you want, which size, which angle and I will do it for you, but you have to wait a few days.

I'm glad you like it. I own a real old gramophone, that is close to this model.
It's much more easy to model something if you have the real thing in your hand.

Oh cool! Β I bet it is much better to have a real thing to look at while your modeling.

My gramophone sounds awesome; it's like a time trip back to the 1920's.
