Ok After I saw what Rick Johnson rickjohnson@setel.com built for Lloyd Green; well, I just had to have some for myself to go with my Green LDG.
sorry about the lighting as I just snapped a couple shots of the stuff on my way from the car to the house..ha
I can't begin to tell you how perfect these are. Rick is a stickler for extreme detail; as every part is perfectly constructed to fit and the Green Tolex and Gold Grill cloth is so perfectly done, I'm almost speachless(yeah right; me speachless..ha)
I played a gig with this rig last night and these cabinets are made out of "PINE" as they should be and I probably don't have to tell you of HOW WONDERFUL THEY SOUND; if you have stuff made out of Pine; but if you don't; weeeeellllll.....ha.
Thank you Rick Johnson; you are a Brilliant Designer and a Genious craftsman and thank you Lloyd Green for turning me onto this Awesome Man.

Beautiful!
Have you weighed the head?
(I'm guessing 38 lb.) |

Hey Ricky,
Are those open back or closed back cabinets?
Thanks

Hey Ricky,
I forgot to tell you in my last reply , just how really beautiful those speakers really are and for a great guy too!
Now with all of that being said.....Did Lloyd play through those yet, and if he did , were there any of his fantastic sounds and awesom licks left in there? LOL
Thanks
Gene

Gene those are Open back. Also; the picture above are of MY cabinets....and Lloyd Green has his own and loves them as I do. I had Rick make me some after I saw Lloyd's as here is a picture of Lloyd's stuff Rick Built him and was my inspiration to have Rick build me some after seeing THIS.
Also Rick Johnson just built Bruce Bouton a cabinet and he digs too.
Oh and yes the turnaround on Rick making anyone something is OUTSTANDING and the packaging and shipping is 1st class man.
