I had black mounting hardware on order, so some of those shiny parts behind the cloth will blend better soon. It's a nearly 6 cubic foot cabinet, so the D140F has plenty of room to breath. The port isn't optimal (obviously), but it works well. I'm capable of gigging my 1970 B-15N, and this...

I just restored a 1962 and loaded it with a D140F.

I think mine is Serial No. 265 plus or minus a couple. It's such a great instrument.

I love the Julia and at that price it's worth trying. If it isn't the one, move it along.

My current gig board is a compact version of my writing/recording board. I love it.

The MBD has kicked all other dirt pedals off my current gigging board. What a fantastically versatile pedal.

Weird thread.

My fliptop is a 1970 B-15N I have been playing for 20 years. After some recent repairs, I decided to play around with a few speaker swaps to see what I liked best in the cabinet. These were the contenders. Reconed JBL D130: This started as a 1950s or early 1960s D130, not D130F. The frame was...

I typically work on my own amps. Not my B15. That means she's at the mercy of whomever I send her to for service. Let's just say, I made a bad judgment call. But I redeemed myself by getting her to Frank at Forgotten Gear Restorations to correct the other tech's mistakes:

There is a new 200S. The Beta Mini is an entirely different amp.

I have restored/built and currently play: 1963 Fender Showman 1969 Sunn 200S 1970 Ampeg B-15N 1977 Ampeg V-4B 1984 Gallien Krueger 400RB 1993 Gallien Krueger 400RB JTM45 The Sunn is my favorite and none are anything less than amazing.
