It's worth more than me! Does it look original?

Looks a bit rough, but intact. Too bad about the spray paint!

Serial number's either scraped off or whited-out. Hard to verify the vintage :( .

that cab is a 1970 at the oldest. in its current condition worth $1200 tops, too bad it has been abused.

typical ebay sellers smokin crack! I have a 1959 mint HIWATT for sale! :shock: :lol:

ps.
I emailed the seller (very nicely I will add) explaining that HIWATT wasn't created until 1966. I am pretty certain that SE4123 cabs weren't made before 1970 and that if he sent me pics of the data stickers on the speaker frames that I would be happy to help him make his auction accurate.

we'll see what happens.

I heard from the seller, he thinks it is a 1973. he added links to some speaker pics but they didn't work.

Basically it is a $1000 cab, but you can Buy It Now for $2995!!! Sign me up!
