Hi guys, fortunately, I know what I'm doing, so I won't be begging for silly stuff. One of the 3 15" CTS (bass) drivers is AWOL, and I figured someone either would want to sell me one, or had a recommendation for an aftermarket replacement driver.

You need to turn up a good used one or get that reconed because no one makes a off the shelf 16 ohm bass driver which is what those are.

I've located a good used one. I can't re-cone one that isn't there at all. Someone removed it from the cabinet years ago.

Weber DOES make a 16ohm 15" bass driver BTW. As an amp tech/dealer, I'm always looking to preserve originality and repair things on a budget.

If you ever need a "weird" guitar/bass speaker, http://tedweber.com is the place to go. I kept digging in hopes of an original type.

I need to look for you as I may still have a good CTS bass driver or two when I swapped in EVMs in one of may cabinets.

Thanks, but the Job is done! I found a gent in Kansas that had one, and it's arrived here, been installed, and ready to rock.

If you wish to follow the Saga, you can find it on my YouTube Channel DeadKoby
