Hi Mark,
Is this a PA cabinet (~57"H x17"W) or a guitar cabinet (~39"H x25"W)?
I'm guessing that it is a PA cabinet - I remember that Kustom made a powered PA monitor cabinet but I can't find it in the literature.
Could you send pictures of the front and the back?
Also, could you let me know any numbers that are on it?
My email is LStrick115@aol.com
Thanks,
Les S

Hi Mark,
Your speaker cabinet is a Kasino model 200 4x12 powered cabinet.
The power module looks a lot like part of a Kustom 200 amp so it is probably identical to the power amp part of a Kustom 200 which is 100 watts RMS at 4 ohms.
Kasino made 100 watt powered speakers; to get more power you would add another powered speaker - that is why it has an extra jack to plug a second module into.
If you search this site for "Kasino module" you will find a few posts on this.
The early Kasinos (approx 1971) were virtually identical internally to their Kustom kousins. Internally they were the same in every way - including the "Kustom" name and PC # on the circuit boards. I think the reason the power amp says "Kustom" is that you cannot see it from the outside - the brand shown on the outside would be "Kasino".
