I remember being 15 or 16yrs old and helping my friend take his Ampeg 6x10 up the stairs in his house. Genuinely a frightening situation lol.

I eventually bought myself a Markbass 6x10 and was able to, with some careful planning, get that up my home’s stairs by myself. I felt like the future had arrived.

How about…

Dude from another Dad band, maybe.

Then there’s this…

And my favorite…’TB member hearing music that was released years after they were in high school’…

I have misgivings about all of this. Why should any of us take seriously a thread begun by someone who could be
"an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato"?

Scary! Does it include the actual 8x10 or do you have to provide your own?

Ah, the bad old days! SVT, 2 8x10's, 2nd floor garden apartment with a U-turn in the middle of the flight of steps! Thank you, thank you, thank you switching power supplies, Class D amps, and neodymium speakers!

I remember being 15 or 16yrs old and helping my friend take his Ampeg 6x10 up the stairs in his house. Genuinely a frightening situation lol.

Summer of 1976, I'm 15 (-and-a-half) years old, been playing guitar for an original theater review that did two weeks of performances at the local high school so my amp -- which includes a Fender Dual Showman 2x15 cabinet -- has been living in the auditorium for the entire month of August, ever since my Dad halped me cart it to school in his big Chevy Impala.

The day after the final performance, I'm told I need to get my amp out of that auditorium...but Dad and his Chevy are away on a business trip. Mom's car is a Volkswagen Beetle.

Amazingly, my good friend (also named Bob) and I were able to somehow squeeze that enormous Dual Showman cab into the back of the Beetle, with its rear seat folded down, and an awful lot of cursing and sweating. I think it took us 40-50 minutes of sheer grunt work once we opened the VW's doors.

Oh, wait, but the fun was just beginning: It took me three days to get that speaker cabinet out of the VW! My buddy Bob wasn't around, Mom wasn't gonna help ("You got it in there, you get it out!"), Dad was still out of town... I would wrestle with that thing for hours just to get it to budge an inch or two out of the car. THREE DAYS!!!

I sold the Dual Showman the following week.
