    refinishing a bass

    Well I am stripping her down now I'm using a chemical stripeaze type paint remover but it really doesn't seem to have any balls. After 2 thick coats it looks like it did when I started. I might have to break out my palm sander.

No stickers on the back all I found was a number 1567x 8ohm I've searched peaveys site and that number dosent appear anywhere. They seem to be older speakers but are in great shape and still have good attack and...
