Got a new cab!

Not here yet but it's a '72 checkerboard slant with two three 75hz G12M Greenbacks and a 55hz Greenback.

Two of the greenies have "3" on the cones which basically makes them pre rola. The other G12M is a 1777 and the 55hz is unknown.

Got the whole thing for $800

The date code on the 55hz G12M is a year earlier than the others so I'm guessing that it's a pulsonic cone as well.

you are lucky chris well done! hope the cab is great how is the 68 doing?

The '68 sounds fantastic but it has 55hz G12M blackbacks so it's less accurate.

I might try swapping the speaker in the cabs to see how they sound. I'm guessing the slant could use a little more bass and the slant a little less.

very nice, gnu! rid yourself of the 55er and get another 25 watter, and then your off!
