SE4122 #3546 in the house

Post by Dr.HI-TONE »

I was presented with the opportunity to pickup an old HIWATT cab yesterday.

I hope to get some picks this weekend, it is in pretty decent condition!

I need to shampoo the grille cloth as it is pretty dirty, but considering it was local and the guy brought it to my office........I am pretty happy!

I should have taken a pic of it before the first round of cleaning! It must have spent years in a bar. It had some Mojo, but it bordered on gross!

Sounds like a girl I used to know, from Joliet ...or, was it Waukegan ;) ?

If you get it looking MUCH better, no one's gonna believe it's vintage :D .
