I took the tank out of the Hustler and the number rubber stamped on it is: 031-0047-00
There is also the mumber: 1122 stamped into the metal of the tank, which is an Accutronics tank.
I removed the Hustler's tank and transplanted it into the Sidewinder, and it sounded just as crappy in THAT. It sounds like there's a distant, crappy distortion box along with the reverb or something. Yuck!
When I was testing the Hustler earlier, and was cranking the volume up and down, I noticed some evil sounding noises intermittently erupting from the amp. Sounded like some old components were complaining or something. Other than that, it sounded pretty cool. In contrast, I didn't find the sound of the Sidewinder as pleasing, and it didn't seem to have as much high end sparkle as the Hustler. . . .maybe because of its' single 15 speaker.
I'm seriously considering having both amps re-capped or something by a pro. . . .unless there's a good YouTube video showing how to do it.
I live in the East Bay here in California. . .anybody know any good local techs who like Kustoms???
