« on: January 25, 2011, 12:50:31 PM »
I was out making the rounds today and one of the local independent music stores had a 70's Sound City 4x12 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is empty and someone painted the grill but I got it for all of $29 bucks ! I'm stoked, it will look great with my SC 6x10 and SC 200 Plus!

Very nice...

I have no idea what it looks like (pix?) - and I'll be interested to hear what it weighs when it's filled.

  I still have to drag it out of the van, then I'll get a picture up. I think I saw one of these in a old gig picture that  gweimer posted.

i had three of those back in the day. even then they were a great deal for the price that was being charged. i had never heard of them and was very pleased with the sound. sadly, i didn't know you were supposed to take pictures of your gear. ;D

Unless you use neo speakers in it, that thing will be ready for a part in the World's Strongest Man lifting competition.

Very Nice

BTW Scott you are a maniac. 

Do you actually move all that stuff yourself or are you lucky enough to have roadies.  I sold my SVT's when i stopped having roadies/soundmen.
