Custom Mahogany 2X12 Cabinet Speaker Choices:

Here's the info on the Stealth 80 from Jensen:

"The Tornado Stealth 80 is the Neodymium counterpart of the ceramic powered Electric Lightning. The Stealth 80 is extremely efficient, with slightly scooped mids, and it shines in the cleanest as well as in the heaviest tonal applications. It delivers exceptional punch and attack, retaining all the clarity needed for palm-muted riffs and power chords, as well as crystal clear clean rhythm playing..."
 
My favorite Led Zeppelin album by a wide margin, It's got everything, every nuance of their sound. Side three is pretty much the greatest 23 minutes of music they ever recorded.

Gary, I can't help but be befuddled that the 2 of us grew up what was likely no farther than 30 miles apart and yet in so many ways we were walking in unison without even knowing it. Another phenomenon that I can only appreciate now, is something I attribute to the powers of the Rock n Roll gods. I can almost invariably recall 95% of the people responsible for turning me on to my initial exposures to seminal bands in my life, in my record collection and in my experiencing the greatest examples of each artists catalogue.

MY exposure to the Beatles came from the older sister of my childhood best friend who's family was from NZ then moved to Australia
I believe Physical Graffiti was my Christmas present from my younger sister.
Another Gem and my favorite,priceless nugget came from her as well another Christmas. To me, Next to my 2112, there will never be a better Clapton sound than Wheels of Fire and of course Disraeli Gears.


 
YES!

Had me bouncin round my little studio, volume on ten of course!

Might be time for a little Fantasy cover by RH

That's kind of you to say!!!

Our singer flaked one night...we needed to do Immigrant Song, but I can't sing as high as our vocalist, so I dropped the vocals down to something more "Lemmy-esque" and it was surprisingly well received!!!!
 
We used a lot of hardwood cabs over the years. For me, I will take anything over particle board. I think I'm inclined to just throw this 4.4 pound Neodymium Jensen Jet Tornado 100watt in with a 6.4 pound Celestion 70/80, just to get the cabinet up and running ASAP, then work out a better combination of speakers at a later date.

I may not even put a nameplate on this cabinet...I'm just thinking outloud.
I like the Von Herndon
 
MAN has it been too long since I took a hit off the Zep needle.
Like a double barrel shotgun, Custard Pie is followed up by The Rover.
Robert, I know you are the guitar playing equivalent to the Swiss army knife combined with Lazerlike focus in your ears and fingers. BUt I also read you mention drums. Do yourself a favor and give this a listen with headphones and check out Bonham's drumming here. Pure POWER but with groove unlike anyone before or since. Something about that 26 inch kick drum, his footwork and just his timing and feel to drive the rest of the band is what I notice most.


My first Zep album was II. Been a Zep fan ever since. Just some noodling..

 
Ordered my 80watt Jensen Jet Neodymium Tornado Stealth yesterday from Brad Woodbury at Amplified Parts in Tempe, Arizona yesterday...shipped out regular UPS Ground.

Just got a notification that its on the truck for delivery today.... :-)
