When I first saw a Kustom amp on the stage at Hollywood Park in Baltimore in the 'day', I thought they were kinda weird looking an probly wouldn't be very good quality because of its chrome dinette appearance. . .I was wrong. They sound great and they're built great. . .I come to find out here of late. Jay Sturmer (recently deceased) recommended a 250-4 setup for use with Wurlitzer Electric Piano. He was the keyboardist/arranger for the Admirals band based in Baltimore in the sixties/seventies/eighties (actually they're still playing) and a great stylist and a mentor. He said 'Jake, be sure and get the speaker configuration with the two JBL's and the high frequency driver and don't forget the controller and wah-wah pedals. I'm taking this recommendation seriously and so I'm out on a kind of music archeology hunt for the 250-4. So far I'm not finding any. I would assume that anybody that has one is probly holding on to the thing. I'm anxious to join the 'tuck 'n roll' cult! Wasn't aware that all this was going on. . .
