Found a "PAISLEY" 1965 SMILEY 2x15 CAB!!!
« on: April 07, 2008, 12:13:57 pm »
FINALLY!!  I've been searching for a Smiley "paisley" tolex Sunn cab to go with my paisley heads FOREVER (10+ years)

I've never actually even seen a pic of one besides in the early Sunn brochure. Heve never saw one live either.

So, I freaked when I found a 2x15 cab SUPER CLEAN (no tears) and it even has the original handle on it unbroken (gasp!)

Pics to come soon.

Naturally, my girlfriend in not as thrilled to see it sitting in the living roon as I am :)  She said she's moving out if any more amps or guitars show up....I told her that would make room for a few more (then she got quiet.)

I found a second early 2x15 the same exact day by bizarre coincidence but it turned out to be a transition one with normal tolex and a Smiley logo (missing but the outline was there.)

Geez....that second cab I found, that I mentioned above, turned out to be the same one JOHNNY GUITAR posted about here.

I wish I'd seen his post first before the seller went psycho on me too.

Look out for this guy!
