Re: Elizabethan LZ-29. Rectifier.
I don't have an LZ29 schematic but the big resistor could be the shunt resistor that sets the torque of the LH motor (supply reel) If it is it will be in circuit across the LH motor when in play or record, that motor being connected in series with the RH motor (take up reel) The two motors being in series across the mains during playback/record, that's the usual arrangement for these types of 3 motor decks.
