The type on the back says it was distributed by a licensee of Sunn in Mexico... somehow I doubt that a fake would bother to put that on there.


Still a very interesting piece.

The posting seems to have expired, but a friend of mine recently was given a Mexican Sunn 410 cabinet.  I'll be sure to grab some pictures ASAP, and see what I can make of it.  Maybe it was part of the period where Fender was making guitars and whatnot under the name Sunn, though I believe that was being done for Indian-made products.  Anyone up to correct me?

I am actually going to go take a look at said Mexican Sunn Concert Lead II this week and check out how she sounds. If I pick it up I'll post some better pics, and of the guts.
