I've got a vintage Acoustic 150 head, circa 1976 or so...playing into a 2x12 loaded with EVM12L speakers and it sounds fantastic. I hate to think how good it could be if I put a proper bass cab with it!

That'll rattle objects off of shelves!
It does! It also rattles my drummers hardware loose and makes his kit fall apart.
We all get a big laugh out of it.
I got my amp today!
I'll be honest here...everytime I walk into my studio and see the 370 - I smile!I recently re-tolexed her and generally "cleaned her up". I realize that a lot of folks (particularly younger folks) who never had the chance to play through the older USA stuff might doubt our claims..but I tell you, it's true...louder than hell!!
Congrats!!

Here's a fun one. A few years back 5/23/05 I sold a restored 360/361 to a famous guy. His friend Flea bugged him relentlessly until he sold it to him.
He (famous guy ) told me Flea played the National Anthem with it at a sporting event.
Here ya go.
Enjoy.. Ps. It's a man and his amp. LOL

I'm thinking of pairing a Markbass Little Mark II with the B410 cab...and eventually a SWR Big Ben 18", what are your thoughts on that rig?
Hi all.
I have a couple of example of very rare and early Acoustic Control Amplifiers. The 1st is The Beach Boy guitar amp.
The other one is The model TTB Tuned Tube Bass amp.
Here is a link of one in action on You Tube, the Model TTB Tuned Tube Bass amp.
Thought you all might like to see these very rare and early Acoustic amplifiers. They would make great additions to any one collecting these great amplifiers. They show up on EBay and Craigslist sometimes.

I assume your talking about the Acoustic B115? That particular 210 cab I had linked to was wired for 4 ohms but I found this 210 that is wired for 8 ohms but I don't think it has the horn or volume control on it.

Hey thanks... But it's carpeted... I don't do carpeted. Got Cats. What I'd really like is a pipe dream I suppose and that's for Acoustic to make one that matches the B115, yes.
does any of your acoustic amps have a distinct smell to it? mine has this unmistakable smell to it that hasn't gone away even a bit since i got it.it's kind of like that "new car" smell..
The smell is most likely from the tolex - the 'new car scent' is from the plastics etc used in the interiors.
