Re: tight fit speaker



Hi John,
Much like what was the reason for the bell covers had to be removed from the
originalJensen P10R's on the REAL '59 Bassman, the bell covers were strictly
cosmetic and were removed so the covers wouldn't hit the tubes or the
chassis, and this is a very similar sitation here. If you get the book, "A
Desktop Reference of Hip Vintage Guitar Amps, available thru either
http://www.amazon.com or http://www.kendrick-amps.com you'll find the
absolute best article ever written about the 4-10 Bassman, and this problem
with the Pro Junior is very nsimilar, so don't sweat it.

  Subject: tight fit speaker


  I just put a new speaker in my Pro Jr.  I had to take the magnet cover off
in order to close the amp back up.  The magnet is now very close to the
power tubes -- it is touching one of the skinny springs that holds the
retainer on the power tubes.  It is not touching the tube.  It is not
touching the retainer.  The spring is not touching the tube.  It sounds
great to me.

  Any reason I should not go with this?  Any problem with having the magnet
cover off (does it have a purpose?) or the magnet so close to the powere
tubes?

  BTW and FYI, it's a Weber 10A100 (aka P10R).  T A Weber said they could
make one up with a shallower basket, but of course I don't want to part with
this one unless it may be a problem.     ---  Even if you think I picked the
wrong speaker, I'd appreciate your opinion on this situation   :-)  ---

  Thanks in advance!   --john k.
