As much as I try, this site and my computer pic posting just don't get along. So, I've done what I have in the past and posted some pics of the speakers discovered in my recent purchase of the 1970 K200B-1 rig that we discussed on an earlier thread. Fender labeled JBL D140F-6 16 ohm 15's. I'm pushing them with one of the new Kustom KB500 "mini" heads and the cab really sounds great. Anyway - here are the directions, well worth the navigation. http://oren-hudson.u.yuku.com/gallery - scroll down to the last pic entitled Some Recent Aquisitions Porn. Click the picture. Then click "comments" and roll through. You might some other interesting albums as well. Enjoy. Cool

Interesting photo's. I have no idea why Fender would offer 16 ohm speakers. Perhaps as a general replacement. I don't know of any Fender cabinet that would have used 16 ohm speakers, but then again I left the music store business in the fall of 1979, and with the grey frame JBL's that would have put them in a much earlier time, early 60's to mid to late 70's before they changed to the orange frame black magnet color scheme.

I can't get the photos to load, and I can't think of any Fender amp that used 16 ohm, 15 inch JBLs. Maybe one of the solid state Bassman or Dual Showman amps.

I couldn't get them to load at first and went back and re read the instructions to get them to load.

I went back to my 1966 Fender Price list and Fender offered the solid state Dual Showman with JBL D130's. The solid state bassman used three 12" speakers. They also offered the D130F JBL speakers as 8 ohm or special order 4 ohms. Retail price was 102.00 dollars. They also offered the D140F in 8 ohm or special order 4 ohm for 120.00
