Hi, your cabinet is a 1972 or 73 model. Kustom started using speakers labeled KEI around the time that CTS started to go out of the driver business and the Eminence speaker company came into being. So may be others here have more info for you on the speakers, but I will say that they are made by Eminence due to the fact that CTS always had their production code 137 on their drivers. Eminence uses the code 37, and the numbers on your speakers start with 038, so mabe a sub-code of emeinence.Their is no way of telling what color tuck & roll the cab originaly had on it, and with no tuck & roll, and no kustom name plate ,it may be worth 150 to 200 dollars at best. I bet the cab sounds great though!
nice, thanks for that info. so it's from 72-73? Now I like it even better! Yeah, the cab sounds great, I've toured with it and have played many gigs...never any major problems and a great vintage sound.
Do these compare to the 8-12 G cabs? Those are the only ones I could find on this website that were similar....does anyone know how many watts these speakers are?

There is another good web site for Kustom info www.broadwaymusicco.com and of course ebay's site for what's selling for what @ebay's kustom,kustom Amplifi...itars,bass. Saw a 4x12 with 250-4 head just the other day at that site for sale BuyItNow $500.00 T&R not the best shape on head but cabinet looked great.
