I have the 2 of the above noted speakers which have probably been used only about 5 times in the last few years.
I Wonder what they are worth and if there could be a sale for them! I am willing to de-construct and sell as individuals if there is a good offer with serious interest.

I am in Perth West Australia and could ship where necessary.
Please respond here with your comments or send a personal email with details.

I really wish comments regarding their suitability if placed into a '76 Fender Twin amp.

This would be my first sale on the Forum and I am very willingly to make a donation to my favorite website.

Thanks
Ashley

Ashley, In the early 70’sI bought a Twin Reverb that I played guitar and later steel guitar through. After a couple years I had Altecs installed and noticed a big tone difference. Not so much in amp settings but in clarity. However I do not know what they are worth these days. The Twin is already heavy and the Altecs make it heavier, but if you can stand the weight put them in your Twin. If you don’t care for them then sell them if you don’t need them. I hope this helps a little.

Here's past sale prices in US$ (they could be worth a lot more in domestic sale given that guitar gear in general is higher)

Hi Guys,

Larry & Gene thanks so much for your advice. I believe I will put them into my '76 Twin and sell the "Oxfords"? I think!

Thanks again guys

Ashley
