Use mostly a recent Blues Hawk, but have just gotten a Heritage Millenium & the BH is my backup now. the Weber/Jenkins combo is darn near ideal. heads are a '92 Rivera M100, '64 showman top is backup. sounds range from too warm to bright enough, depending on guitar-amp combination. for the Rivera i run at 50w setting or less, for the showman i keep it at around 5 (volume, w/everything full up)

no fear. one speaker mounting screw wiggled loose once in about 6 months of moderate use.

re Doug Holt: a joy to do business with. has good suggestions and is a player, too, so...i forget the warranty, but no worries...quick responses to my e-mail, one long enthusiastic phone call, even tho it was late in Mississippi (i'm in California).

i was planning on buying a second w/2-10s or 2-12s, when i just happened on a near-mint Rivera CS212-CC for $300. i don't much like Celestions, so will probably put Weber Californias in. anyway, back to Jenkins Sound Shop: the Holts have my unreserved endorsement for anyone i meet looking for a speaker cabinet.
