New Express Build

Post by aaronz28 »

Was not planning on building to sell these,
But i got a little outta control buying old Stancors

This one tured out great--- to bad I can't play better :/
This amp feedsback perfectly (after parts swapping to get it right. :)

the are 1968 G12h30 bass cones - attenuated -9db

my 2 year old Charlie was running around and anything louder is dangerous.

at -9db, the cab sees about 3w - so er about 3/4 watt per speaker LOL

:D

Aaron
Great guitar and playing and what a nice amp too. Love that cab and Hammond organ in the background. You guys are killing me...

Guess I'm gonna have to build an Express soon...
In theory, theory is the same as practice. In practice it's different.
