Title: does this look right to you?
Post by: nobraon on February 07, 2011, 05:58:10 pm

This is my Sunn Sceptre 4x12 vertical cabinet
These pics are not the greatest sorry about hat
but I think I might be missing some bracing on the inside?

also there was some insulation on three sides inside because I can still see the staples in there.

also I think the speakers are dated 67?

can any one give me any info on the type of speakers
that are in here?
they have the chrome dust caps w/ the black dots

Based upon the numbers in the closeup pic of the speaker, it's an Eminence with a manufacture date of the second week of 1971.  Hope this helps.   8-)

Looks like a factory Sceptre to me. Take the crooked labels off the drivers in mine, and that's exactly what they look like;

They are alNiCo magnets, not very burly, I'd guess 20-25 watts maximum but I don't really know. They are a very nice sounding guitar driver IMO.

His seems to be lacking the brace between the baffle and the rear panel.
