Last night, back to Black Jackie.
I started 2 repurposing project cabs for the 18w head cab + 12" speaker cab.
So, I ran the 18w through the 5e3 tweed deluxe clone combo speaker, a Weber Sig12 Alnico aimed at the tweed type tone.
sounded pretty British last night.
Dont know why pic posts sideways. It may be so The Beatles picture looks right, idk.
Also, I am almost done rehabbing the finished part of my basement, which includes my play space.
It was run down when we moved in 20+ years ago.
We are fixing up what is there:
Patch / paint paneling with some moulding repairs, add 2ft tee to ceiling grid and replace acoustic ceiling tiles, new light troffers with the wiring re-done properly, some outlets replaced and new covers.
The floor we just cleaned up best we could, and I have a few pieces to steal from another spot for repairs to this main room.

Nice black Jackson you have there...great guitars! I have a black Jackson guitar myself...a King V which plays like a dream. I really like the compound radius FB on these guitars...great for fast shredding.

Yo Adrian...can you play the song "Panama" by VH through your Panama amplifiers...no?:dood:
;>)/
Tonight I really had a great time. The kids go to a Tuesday nigjg group at our church and its two hours long, so I been taking my Doublneck each week and just jamming unplugged in the coffee bar area, which is empty on Tuesdays.
Tonight, I strapped up and just walked around for two hours jamming non-stop. It's just such a fun guitar and its just effortless to walk around with, as the 3" wide leather strap is super comfortable.
Its good practice too...playing on the move!!!

Nive. How does the T15 vary from the T60?

A BUNCH
T-60 is a full scale early edition "modeling guitar" with many many tones and variotions... with a beefier les paul tone---or telecaster tone---or a (almost) strat woman tone
T-15 is a short scale--- (Think Fender Mustang) 2 Super Ferrite (Peavey only) pups (Think hot soap bars) and has as its nickname implies a more mustang ish tone
T-15 was a "student model" and came with its own built in case amp rig (great fun) -- played this same rig (well not this EXACT ONE) in my friend's basement many many hours in elementary and middle school as we banged out our versions of SHOCK ME and Detroit Rock City!!

Peavey T-15: the "Mississippi Mustang" | MyRareGuitars.com
PEavey innovation in a true working mans guitar:
But the T-Series was built in a way that revolutionized the guitar making industry. Peavey was the first to construct necks with a computerized copy lathe. By using computers, every neck came out exactly the same for the first time in guitar making history. This is now used throughout the guitar industry. This technology also allowed Peavey to produce guitars that were at least the equal to the quality of Fender and Gibson, yet significantly lower their production costs.
In 1978 (the first year of the T-60’s production), these were the prices of Fender’s Strat, Gibson’s Les Paul, and Peavey’s T-60:
Les Paul: Nearly $1,000
Stratocaster: $790
T-60: $375
And maybe that was another problem for Peavey. Maybe guitarists had the perception that a guitar that sold for so much less couldn’t possibly be the equal of the big names. But that simply wasn’t true (even if they weren’t nearly as good looking).
But the best—or most compelling and surprising—guitar in the T Series may be the T-15. This was a guitar that Peavey marketed as a beginner’s guitar, or a professional guitar for “players with smaller hands.” It’s become known over the years as the “Mississippi Mustang”—a reference, obviously, to Fender’s much more famous short scale classic—the Mustang.
