1963 B 16 D 4x10 Cabinet

Post by johnp352 »

A while back I posted a question about a cabinet I had, and got an answer, as well as two inquiries as whether it was for sale or not. It wasn't at the time, it will be, and I think the two people who asked first should be given priority..Tracy and JWilli. I tried getting in touch with them, but no luck, as webtv and aol email addresses..don't work. I really dislike Ebay, and though the matching Jensen C10Q's would go great in a Super Reverb..I think the cab should be sold as it was made.

so..it's the 4x10 extension speaker cabinet, silver tolex. The tolex is in worn condition, this cabinet was used..and btw, sounds great too. I think there was a handle on top, that's gone.
Logo is there. I have the back off so I can give you pics of the speakers and codes, they date to '63.

I'd like to get a fair price for the whole thing, you guys know what that is a lot more than I do, I am a player, not a collector. I have an idea about what the speakers are worth as a set, but I am willing to listen to any reasonable offer.

thanks, and it's good to be back here after a break.

I'd give up my winter hat for one of those B-16s or 22s. The last one I saw for sale was on the Bay. It went for about $1700.00, I recall. I backed out at $1400 and should have stayed in. That was a couple of years ago. The Brilliante head option, though, is super-rare--this is the only one I've ever seen!

I lucked out on Ebay a few months ago. I got a B-22 Brilliant Head and 2 X 15 cabinet for about $650. Sounds amazing.
