The G-15A is an altec speaker that kustom used, pictured in the literature section on this site. Dark grey in color with stick on kustom logo by Ross. Does the cabinet have aluminum port tubes or four 3" diameter ports? During the years of the K200A series, kustom didn't show the siren 3x15 to include the Altec or JBL speaker options. So you may have a cabient that started out as a 3-15K cabinet and someone installed the siren horn to make it a PA or a guitar cab with a lot of high end. In the 69/70 big catalog, kustom shows the siren PA cabinets offered with Jensen's, Altec and JBL, but by that time the Altecs should have been a white frame, black magnet and a Kustom ink stamp logo on the speaker frame or magnet, and the kustom logo by that time had changed to Kustom Electronics Inc. To help us in dating the cabinet, what is the speaker jack plate made of? Any markings? Is it square plastic or metal? Some of the plastic jacks had the speaker name stamped into the plastic. The metal jacks were silk screened with the brand of the speakers. If you have some photo's email them to me at djt@chartermi.net pleat Report message to a moderator
