Here's my '69 Twin Reverb [seems I've had several over the years]. These things sure have maximum swat...great for any outdoor gigs. The Twin came w/ the stock gray JBLs [and the tags!]. I swapped 'em out and put 'em away once I noticed the edges deteriorating at loud gigs. [They're almost part of the paper of the cone...doped w/ heavy grease...not too tough after 40 years]. I ran a pair of EVM-S 12s in there for awhile. What a great sound! [nearly unliftable from the car trunk]. Now there are some generic old Eminence or something. I like them better than the too bright 'bels' anyway. Marty Stuart used to use two Twins w/ EVs and liked to say, after a tornado swept thru the fairgrounds at one gig, only his Twins stayed put. |
