What did I buy??

The original post raises more questions than it answers.
Who buys something when they don't even know what it is?
Who buys something they apparently don't need?
WHY, WHY, WHY???

After a difference of opinion I bought it thinking it was a vintage speaker. It is actually a cabinet without an amp.
An amplifier vs. a speaker cabinet is not a "difference of opinion" :meh:

You will need a good head to power it. I had the Bassman 50 head with the 215 cab and it was awesome.
The OP stated that they're "not a bass player" so apparently they don't need an amp. :unsure: They don't even understand the different terms of "amp", "cab" and "speaker."

The only halfway logical reason I can think of so far is this person saw this item for sale "on the secondary market", and thought it was an 'a-maz-ing' deal because her cousin's brother-in-law plays bass and his 'big speaker' cost over a thousand dollars!! So this person purchases said cabinet thinking it's the same thing that they'll be able to re-sell it for MUCH MORE because the person selling it doesn't know what they have. :laugh:

I guess we will never know as the OP hasn't said a word since page one of this thread and If she read everything after I doubt she'll be back. Normally there's one troll per site. Didn't realize this site was actually under a bridge in their village.
 
I think it's hilarious how many people here "need" to know why you bought this in order to help you identify it. If I went to a Chevy forum and said hey guys, I bought this truck but I'm having trouble dating it, no one would need to know the reason I bought the truck to figure out how old it was. Hope you come back with more info.
Depends on the truck.

What the fredonia is happening in here? I imagine the OP has long since gone off to do something more musically interesting than be trolled in here...

And I wouldn't blame her for leaving. It seems some folks are more interested in finding fault with her rather than offering to help her identify the cab (which was actually super easy to do from the pics).

But then, that's the human race in a nutshell, isn't it. Some humans are nicer than others. That's the way it has always been, and that's the way it will always be. So since it matches my expectations, some of the posts in this thread don't surprise me at all. It's just life on planet Earth with humans. Welcome to the party! :thumbsup:
 
Obviously it was on focus but the f stop was a little off at that aperture. Semantics really

And as we all know, a cat would never allow the f stop to be off like that!
Just take a look at this cat's work......
