Did it come with the cat pee, or was that extra?

The Oliver? No, not the one I was considering, thankfully.

BTW, for those who don't know what that amp is, it's a Jess Oliver product, produced after his Ampeg days. The head is motorized and lowers down into the cabinet for storage.

That's pretty cool. I didn't know what it was but it does have that Ampeg vibe thing to it, so not really surprised. Glad to hear about the cat pee. I grew up in a house full of cats and they managed to hit just about any speaker or amp that ended up there.

I had the factory cover for the Kasino. Played a 2 week gig at a theater, the cover was folded up behind the amp. A male cat 'sprayed' it. Left the cover outside in fresh air for a month(after spraying various solutions on it). Then I threw it away.:banghead:

Speaking of heavy, I keep thinking about that [perhaps gently used] Ampeg 810 I saw the other day in the B&M with all the new Rumbles. And I just know what that thing will do, and I just know I've no reason for it because of its sheer mass. "Stairs" is exactly what I said to the shopkeeper. That in no way diminishes my desire to crank one up.

The bottle was dusty but the liquor was clean is about how it feels at this age. Little did I imagine in the summer of 67 what I might actually contemplate When I'm 64.

I've got 3 of them. I ran two of them together once and we had an earthquake not long after. I like 'em.:hyper:

Yeah, I played through a nice Ampeg SVT head a couple of months ago at a festival. It sounded really nice but when I looked up the price and weight, I decided I like what I have. My days of lugging 80lbs around are over and I don't have 3 grand to spend. Oh, well.

I picked up my full rig a few years ago for $1500 used. I can still get it around if I have to but my PF 500 and 2 12 have been getting all the work lately. Sure do miss that "sound." Nothing else like it.
