    I have a Jensen 12" 8 ohm P12R from an early 60's Ampeg M-12 that needs re-coning. Has anyone found a reliable place to do this in the NYC area?

    Thanks for any help.

    Check out www.recone.com. Also, ask at area vintage shops, like 30th St Guitar and Lark Street Music.

    I don't think there is anyone left in Manhatten, there is a place in brooklyn [Heavy custom sound?]. I have been using a sound shop in Pompton Plains, NJ. I am at work and have there name and number at home.

    They do the actual reconing for most repair shops in NJ and the surrounding area... drop it off elsewhere and it goes to them anyway.

    I would just send it off to Weber. I've been more than happy with their Jensen recones.
