Here are some (crapy) pictures i'd just made. Haven't had the time to open the amp up. http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k618/MVD1974/IMG_2679.jp g

But i was wondering, isn't it the same story with other tops from the same decade (Peavey etc.). They have also 2 speakeroutputs. The story sometimes told is that you can only get the full power of the amp by using 2 speakers. Top = 200 watt, but when you use 1 speaker, you'll only get 100 watt. But that's not true. As far as i can hear is the Kustom IV, with just one cabinet far louder than the Kustom IV.
Interesting stuff! Like it a lot.

How are they made, the top contains 2 x Kustom III, but there's also 2 chanels. Is one channel 130 watts?

And i was thinking (argh, it's hard to explain in english!), it is possible to change my Peavey 215 cab in a way that i can connect the two ouputs to the speakers. I like the Peavey 215. The Kustom 4-15 is really bizar.
