Bought 2 Vintage Fanes

Post by Philrob1 »

Yo folks

In my newly aquired quest for vintage Fanes I have just purchased these from Spain


Clayton says they are not Crescendos but he did say they should sound very, very good!

Code of 15242 - mean anything?

These will be put in the WEM

Cheers

Phil!

No I don<t know how they sound,

I had Crescendo<s a few years ago but according
to Old School Dave ,they were 12E made for PA's so I sold them.

I almost bought a cab 2 years ago that had four just like yours but didn't buy it me cause it was in Europe
and would have cost an arm an a leg to ship .

If they sound as good as they look ,you should be ok!

Phil is too busy playing with them by the looks, but I can tell you they arrived in 100% condition beautifully packed and he thinks they sound great in his WEM 2x15. :D

Hey folks

Yes! John is right, i've been playing them a lot!

They arrived fine and they sound AMAZING! Much louder than what was in before (Pop 60s) however that is to be expected. Much smoother now. Love them!

Someone sell me 2x 12" Fane Crescendos pleeeeease!
