The cab you see there is called a Siamese. |

I really like it. It's loud as balls and the EQ section has a pretty decent range.

| | | Free makes it good. It is for bass, I bought one of these new when they came out - probably late 70's early 80's. Don't let the knobs fool you, the amp is basically only capable of one tone, and it ain't that great.
I'm not sure if the old clunker would even work good for fishing, to tell the truth.

(kidding, if it works it works, and will do until you upgrade, at which point it can go live in the practice room. the bass player in one of my bands uses an '80s 4-channel peavey 100w PA head on a random 1x15 cab in the practice room and it does just fine for that.)

All three speakers have been replaced over the years but the cab, which has seen many gigs, many miles of travel and more than it's fair share of abuse, is still in good nick.

Band I worked in back in '79 supplied me with one of those and a 215 cabinet. And like Mungi, it replaced a 40/50 watt Bassman.
OP: As I remember, the "Booster" jack can be used as either an Out or an In for slaving 2 amps. |

I wish I had friends like yours
