Distinct degree of envy emanating from the shed...

Did you ever get those plans off Baz for the 2x15...?

I recently picked up a later Hiwatt 4x12 - one of the front-loaders without any porting. Sounds pretty good with bass through an old Orange 120, but I haven't hit it real hard yet.

I like it. I think I'll change my name to Tiger Shark Cooper thanks to Kenny's 51st state!! Since he's the 51st State, Maybe I should call him Rico??

Rico's 51st State... has a kind of distinctive ring to it...

¿Hay ardillas en Costa Rico...? ;D

If the name for me is popular with the crew I'll happily change it... If I've offended you Baz, it certainly was not meant, so call me what you wish; it won't offend me... try using "Gringo-Loco" if you wish, or "Take-Two and call me in the morning..."

A lot of people here believe the UK was the 49th from '41 thru '59 - since then we've been the 51st... hence my present name, which is also my age... presently works for me... it is scheduled to change again in 2011

Very nice rig, imo - no envy... I just couldn't afford the chiropractor bills... ;)

Same here!  If I had to carry that every week to a gig I'd be in a hospital bed by now.  I remember back in the olden days I could fit my Sunn 215 cabinet in the back seat of my Chevy Vega! (it was a challenge to say the least!)

And cool score on that cab GOT.

ha, another proud vega owner! i took the passenger seat out of mine so i could haul my sound city stack around. my amp still managed to crack the windshield from the inside. :P

i also managed to put my svt cab in the back seat of my parents 2 door, 1969 ford torino. once was quite enough.
