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.
