I've had this thing for quite some time. It has two 55Hz Celestion Greenbacks in it. I'm not sure if it's a custom cabinet, or if it's mass produced. The build quality is very good, which leads me to believe that it's mass produced, plus, it has attachments on the sides so that it can be stacked with other cabinets. I'm not sure what they are called.
Was there a manufacturer out there that was making cabinets with yellow carpet?
I'm pretty sure it was built in the 70's, or perhaps even late 60's as the drivers themselves are from around that period.

I'm currently in Kitchener, Ontario, however I bought the cabinet, as well as a Peavey Standard 260H amplifier of similar vintage, in London Ontario about 6 years ago.
It does sound very nice, even with a solidstate amp driving it. I've never had the opportunity to really crank it up. The bass is quite nice as well, as it's a sealed cabinet, and the Celestions are the lower frequency model.
Unfortunately, I sold my electric guitar about two years ago, however, I hope to get a new one as soon as I have the money. I'm a student right now, so my funds are somewhat limited. For the time being, the amp and cabinet are just sitting in a corner teasing me.
