They would really have to piss me off to not grab it for 300. You could sell the speakers and get the cab almost or totally free. Your cash but I know how it is. I walked out of gc Sunday when they acted like idiots. I can buy what they had off amazon and have it at my house in 2-3 days. I rarely go into there but had a simple thing I wanted to grab and had a few gift cards hanging around. They still managed to screw up. Gc just sucks
they wouldn’t let me test it. Speakers could have been blown. I don’t get it. They let me take the back off to look at speakers but wouldn’t let my try it.

sounds like they knew it was fucked up. Dodged a bullet IMO.

**edit** NM. Looks like the risk paid off.
 
Nice! Open it up and tighten all the baffle screws.
 
Nice score. I have a Marshall 4x12 loaded with 65’s.

Dave, I’m afraid to ask how many cabs you own?

You still got my old Splawn 4x12 and Quick Rod?

You bet. Still my main amp after all these years. Love it

Thanks,

Ron,

I got it at a cash america pawn in Arlington. I only step into pawnshops a few times a year, so was really suprized to score this.

Nice score, How does it sound Scott?
I did a really quick video in my NCD thread the minute I got home, then had to head to work. I got to spend more time with it later in the evening and is sounds pretty damn good. I had to address some ratting coming from the plastic handles. I used some silicone on the internal seams where the plastic handle cups meet the wood and some on the seam where the hand rod meets the cup. Completely fixed the rattling and I can peel it off with no permanent mod. That cab has a nice crunch to it without being harsh, which for me has always been my dislike of angle cabs, but I honestly really like it so far.



 
Nice. Sounds great, I love old broke-in cabs man. In surprisingly good shape for its age too.
 
I'm going to admit it, I dont care. I grew up on Crue, Whitesnake, Def leppard, Poison, Skid Row, etc.. These speakers/cab nails that genre, closer anything I've tried to date. Very balanced mid with a perfect crunch and tight low end.
 
scottosan, better be careful with those handles. If they're brittle now, they'll break soon enough. Shoot me an email and I'll cut you deal on a pair of metal handles. I had an old cab with those plastic handles fall on me after the handles broke 2-3 months back. I'll send you a picture of the scar it left on my shin.

email sent sir!
 
Jim’s handles rock. I bought a pair locally a while back. He gave me a killer deal.

Believe me when I say this is something you want to avoid. I’ve had it happen and it t sucks. Be safe
