As for CRT compatibility the only difference is heater voltage. A series chassis doesn't even notice that, but a parallel heater chassis like the princess can be adjusted to compensate...In the princess and the similar chassis in the continental console all you have to do to compensate for a different heater voltage is swap the heater hot lead between the 2V tap and the 6V tap on the power transformer.
I've ran 17" headshells as test jigs for 21" chassis before so this can be done.

I was thinking about putting a Debutante CRT on a Pedestal set some more. The Pedestal uses 600mA series string tube filament while the 17" CRT is 450mA. You could still do it, but you'd need to add a shunt resistor across the CRT filament.
