I have a Kustom 2-18B cabinet that I used for years and retired it in 1996 or so when I purchased the SWR Super Redhead. The old Kustom is just a relic that now sits in the corner of the studio begging to be used. I would like to sell it for a fair price but I have no idea what that would be. Can anyone here help?

Kustom never made a 218 cabinet as far as I've ever seen. Do you mean a 215 cabinet. Color, condition, type of speakers in the cabinet, and where it's located all play into the pricing.
I think we need more info to help you in pricing the cab.
Kustom did make a single 18 cab that the speaker sat facing the rear of the cabinet.

You are correct my friend. It is a 1-18b and yes the speaker faces the back of the cabinet. I got 2-18B-1 from this picture http://www.vintagekustom.com/cgi-bin/images.cgi?http://www.v intagekustom.com/images/newlit/150250500//05.jpg. That must be the model number for the entire rig.

Also as far as condition the cabinet looks perfect except for one small 1/2 inch tear on the left side. One of the wheels has been replaced. It sounds great.

Ok so we know its a Single 18 folded horn cab. Condition is good, and color? Color plays an important fact in pricing, black being the most common and of course your location. The cabinet is so large that it almost makes the sale more on a local drive than shipping cross country.

The size is the whole reason it was retired. Either it was getting heavier or I was getting older. Anyway it is black. Just like the one in the pic link I left. I am in Chattanooga, TN. Nashville is only a couple of hours away. I would think someone in music town might be interested.
