Not sure how it sounds yet, GC had to order it and it is a backorder because of the holidays they say. I will let you know as soon as I get it and get it installed. They project shipping around the 2nd of Feb. You let me know also. What kind of amp are you moding?

I'm getting my Hot Rod Deluxe modded by omega amps. Jim, the owner, revoices the clean and drive channels completely and improves the input jacks and volume pots. It's supposed to correct all the shortcomings everyone has of the fender hot rod series. And the final piece to the puzzle, as noted by most people who've had it modded, is the C Rex. It's supposed to be tame the highs and tighten up the bass.

I finally got my speaker! |
|
Well I finally got the speaker and put it in my amp. Sounds good so far and its not even close to being broke in yet.
I had to cancel my order fro GC because it had already been a month and I got an e-mail saying it could be another month before I got it. So I got my money back and went to a store that had it in stock, Fazio's Frets and Friends in Ellisville, Mo.. It's one of the best guitar stores around, they carry some great gear.

Well I finally went to GC this past weekend. I had two $50 gift cards and $150 dollar gift card from work. So in the end I bought a Boss DD7, Boss FS-5U (tap tempo pedal), EB Jr Volume Pedal, and a few patch cables to connect them all. So I will probably parting with my Boss ME50 in the near future.
