Decided to visit the ol' girl early this year and IT'S WORKING AGAIN! Thank God too because this really is a rare gem with all the replacements that have been happening lately. Despite it being in not so great cosmetic shape, it still works perfectly! I was afraid it wasn't going to sound since University Park tested 2 minutes late, but I lucked out.
