Hi there everyone
I would like to be able to post pics but as this is my first post it wont let me - I need three posts before I can apparently.
I have a Super PA that has sat around doing not very much over the last 15 years (bought for £200). I also have a 4x12 cab that I bought separately and kept after selling a four input 1979 Marshall 100w non master volume lead head that came with it as part of the sale. That was no for me (so ear-splitting and screechy). I realised the cab was full of pre-rola Celestions and sold the head.
Dating the two I believe the Super PA is 1969-70 and the cab is an angled #1935 from 1971... I have put some pictures in there for you to have a look at.
I have a Weber Mass Lite 100w set to LOW (max attenuation) and then controls dimed half way - its so loud that its unusable without it. It's not a gigging amp, its for enjoyment at home. I am not in a band.
I want to get the cab weave sorted out as its terrible, a cheap job of nasty black cloth done before I bought it.
Q - What weave is the correct weave?
It's got a HUGE DEEP SOUND, but I am not a collector / purist, so I want to get it under control and get more enjoyment from it. I am thinking getting a good tech to reduce the power. I have another two master-volume amps, a 2204 and a rare 2144 combo with 6db boost, but never massively liked the tone of them. They sound like 80's metal (I prefer classic rock sounds)
Q. What mods would you do to this amp? I am not sure what to do.
