I have JBL E-130s and a K-130.. I find them to all be very bright sounding. My Twin has been converted to a single 15", and the speaker I really like in it is the Sica 250 watt (neo magnet). Th ...

BL 705 is 7/8" tall.. can be coil split with the 4 wire model.

Thanks Douglas! 👍

Thanks Bill! 🙏

I want to wire 2) 8 ohm speakers for both 4 &16 ohms. The "plug and play" jack plate seems the ideal solution, but for the fact that they're out of stock everywhere I've looked (except ...

I did before I retired! 🤣 I was a machinist for 45 years, and spent the last 20 at a local shop where, if I have a small job, I still have some 'shop privileges'. 😄👍

I have to raise everything 2”. For the seat, I used 1” aluminum rod and turned one end for a very light press fit into the ID of the conduit. The slugs insert an inch and a half or so..

At 6’3”, I have the same problem. Boots work for me, but I drilled and tapped the rear 2 cover plate holes to 1/4-20 to accommodate adjustable feet that are available at most any hardware store. ...

Bill,

Thanks!

Move the pull rod to a hole further from the cross shaft on the bell crank, or move the changer end of the pull rod closer to the changer axle.

I suffered with horrible pain in my leg for months! Three different doctors that I went to said “it’s sciatica…we can give you shots in your back “!!! I’ve never been much on alternative ...

Sounds like you need more slack on the raise collar...once it touches the the raise finger, it won't go any lower. Easy to see if you turn it upside down and watch the lower mechanism. If the raise ...

I also have used 705s for years, and wanted to go back to single coils myself. I've been very pleased with the Scott Schwartz 'Steeltronics' design.. I've never had hum problems with them... and I've ...

I’ve used the ‘aluminum tube’ fix as well.. works great. 👍 I would also mention that the collars can also be bought as split collars (2 pieces/2 set screws) that would eliminate working it ov ...

Should be available at any hardware store. You'll need:

1). Extension nuts (1 for each pedal rod..available in all lengths)
2). 10-32 nuts..(3 for each rod)
3). 5/8" collars to mount above ...

No.. 8 screws from the back... but it was stuck to the baffle like hair on a bear! 🤣

Got it! The 15" speaker is in a cab that's 16.5" wide, so I couldn't do anything from the back side. I removed the grille and got a knife between the baffle and the surround and got it to r ...

I'll try taking the grille off tonight.. thanks!

Sorry..I should have mentioned that I've removed the 8 mounting screws (from the back), and, while I haven't removed the grille, looking through it only reveals the nut-serts. I did think about remov ...

I swap speakers and cabs all the time, but I’ve never seen one this stubborn! It’s like it was epoxied into the cab! Seems stock in every way.. any ideas about how to remove it without tweeking ...
