Default Well, Mr. Marshall, are you happy now?

The oppressive and racist government of South Africa provided blacks
a far safer and better standard of living than they have today. And
it's going to get worse.

10" Guitar Speakers, US-Made, 8 ohms, 20 Watts RMS Peak Power
Handling.
Individually hand-treated speakers, custom aged by THD using our
proprietary method.

The THD Vintage 10" speakers have a sweet, musical top end, a full,
rich bass range, and a smooth, neutral midrange when played clean and
a strong, vintage-sounding midrange cone break-up when driven close to
their limits. They were designed to be their best in open-back
cabinets and small combos.

The Vintage 10" was conceived to sound and react like the Alnico
Jensen speakers used in the original Fender Tweed Bassman of 1958, but
without using Alnico magnets. We made this decision because, at the
time, almost all Nickel and Cobalt was coming from government mining
in South Africa, back when Apartheid was in full force. We chose not
to do anything to support this oppressive, racist government.

Ideal for 1x10", 2x10" and 4x10" combos, the THD Vintage 10" speakers
are the favorite of slide and harmonic artists in 4-10 combos. They
are also the IDEAL upgrade for the stock speaker in 1x10" Fender
Princeton and Princeton Reverb amplifiers, adding substantial bass
response and beautiful treble tones, while increasing overall
efficiency and volume.

The Vintage 10" uses stacked 10 oz Ceramic magnets to create the long
pole piece and magnetic density necessary for a vintage, Alnico sound.
We discovered that it was more the shape and dimensions of the pole
and the field than the composition of the magnet material itself that
gave the old Alnico guitar speakers their characteristic sound.



Product dimensions: 10" diameter, 3.50" tall
Product weight: 3.50 lbs
