Re: My old amp rig
Back in MY day (mid '70s), I had one of those (on the far left, I think). The Acoustic 370 head and the folded single 18" speaker cab (collectively known as the 371). I loved the caution sticker on the back: "Caution: Sound levels may exceed 120 Db within six (or was it 10 or 12) feet of this cabinet." The cab had wheels and inset handles, so it was easy to move, but not to lift. I think only the Ampeg SVT was heavier. Those were the days.

I had an Acoustic 150B that I built my sound with for many years, in the late Seventies. Very nice head. 
All I wanna do is rock!

Re: My old amp rig
So Jeff, what were you using for the bridge pickup?
Re: My old amp rig
What makes you think this was for one pickup? Try just the E string!

Re: My old amp rig
Check this SVT!
All these stacks are now out in the desert as part of the Strategic Arms Limitation agreement.
Wouldnt you love to turn up at a gig and stand that stack next to the drum kit?

Sure, as long as I didn't have to pack them all in and set them up myself...

Actually, the above pictured Acoustic rig was part of a secret weapon, you can read about it in Atlas Shrugged.
