Not really a repair of an amp, but speaker cabinet...
I took my near-mint looking K200 / 2-15 cabinet out to a gig recently. Sure looked Kustom Kool on stage (and sounded terrific)! Another amp fell into the speaker cabinet while loading, and the grill cloth got damaged. Thankfully no damage to the E140-8 drivers...whew! I did have the slip-cover on the cabinet, and didn't see the damage till I got home.
This is an older "by Ross" cabinet, with the aluminum ports/tubes, and solid black cloth.
Other than the black-goo on the back, and needing to remove the insulation staples, are there any other tips from someone who has actually had one of the baffle boards out of one of these? I'm guessing I don't need to remove the center brace, but not sure. I hope not, since it's likely glued in. Is there black-goo on the front as well? Any special tips for removing/replacing the grill cloth?
This cabinet had no speakers in it when I bought it, so I can't date-code those. The jack-plate is labeled for CTS speakers. Just wondering, what years were the "by Ross" aluminum port cabs built?...not that it matters much, it's in such great shape.
Thanks for your help!
