GIT

'ER

DONE

Ok, all kidding aside, I'm really curious to know if there's a bulb in there.

I'm willing to bet there is.

Has to be more than one bulb because of the seperate enclosures for every pair of speakers.

adbass, it was not like a jack-o-lantern. each speaker cone had a ring around it like an individual florecent circular light bulb. it did not look back lit.

I have played an HPC cab with the one solid grill, as in it didnt look like two 410s in one cab. so it still could have been the HPC with the horn and the bulb we are all familiar with.

H

dude . . . . it's a bulb. One bulb.

Git er done

I thought there were internal baffles that divided the 1- 8x10 into 4- 2x10s...how does 1 bulb light all 8 speakers?

Ah, then you must have received the special edition 810 with the double secret magic speakers that are induced with a patent-pending proprietary material that become luminescent when coupled with specific frequencies.

Seriously, I have no idea why your **** is glowing. I'm just sayin if you want to know it would make sense to take a peek in there.

I've seen strips of lights that would go into cars that can be 4+ feet long. Are you sure he didn't just wire one of those in with the jack so whenever he hits a note it makes it light up?

That would be my guess.

 

[interstatejoe]

Maybe it's infected with glow worms

Why not just open up the cabinet and take a look????

Because that would be far too logical!

I think he said it belongs to another bass player he jams with once a week or something....not his cab so really his choice to pop it open.

 

[rodl2005]

POP it anyway. or at least ASK him????

 

[tom once dead]

I know the 410he lights up, there was a thread about it not that long ago. But it does have a tweeter.

 

[ajunea3]

Maybe he thought it was an 810, but it was really a 610. They are pretty similar in proportion, and the 610 has a horn in it. Possible?

 

[interstatejoe]

Pretty sure it's an 810-HPC, which has 2 horns.

 

[Crockettnj]

DO NOT OPEN IT UP ! You may get really messed up, man!

It takes YEARS for that sonic mojo light to build up... if you let it out, well...

 

[FletcherML]

If there is an Ampeg 810e with a horn, consider me miles davis

 

[NateS]

dude...i want my cab to light up when i play.

off to advanced auto parts to buy those under-glow LED strips to put inside my cab...

This thread is very enjoyable!

I hope the mystery gets solved though. It sounds really weird.
