Nice score!  Now you need to get a matching 215B cab to go with it!

I just sold my old 60's Fender 2x15 cab last fall because it was too much of a pain to move around....although the weight of the 4x10 I bought to replace it makes me wonder.

But it seems like many of the folks who have the Sunn heads go with 2x15 Sunn cabs....maybe to keep the vintage vibe going?

The older 215 Sunn cabs are killer.  I really miss my old 215S.  I had a buddy of mine when I was in high school that played through a Coliseum 300 with matching 215B cab.  He used a brand new 1978 Jazz Bass through it and it killed!  Back then I was using my Gibson G3 with a Peavey Bass head and matching 215 cab.
