I have this speaker from the mid 70's- someone gave it to me. It's practically new, in terms of its usage.
Not being a bass player, I have no idea whether this speaker is considered desirable by the bass playing community.
Is it?

It might be of interest to someone needing a replacement for one of those Acoustic folded horn cabs with the 18". Can you provide the model number?

18's were also used in many of the Cerwin Vega cabinets as well as Vox (Foundation Bass,Westminster),Ampeg(B-18-N),and a few others that I can't think of right now.

JBL made some reall good high-end speakers back then. I have a pair of 15' and 18' and they are really hard to get today and they sound awesome. Do a little research and see what model the are.
