    Look nice. Two red flags...don't see cone numbers and non Altec boxes?

    Almost bet the shipping label is from a recone center, and that they aren't Altec cones

    Ouch! If they're not Altec (or GPA) cones, I'd have GPA recone them as soon as I bought them. Of course, then the bottom line price is more.......

    I emailed the guy for cone numbers. The boxes aren't Altec and couldn't be original as he claims.

    The gold color is NOT exclusively Seeburg, those were used in other cabs also. There's no such thing as a "Seeburg" frame.

    How can you say unmarked boxes are original Seeburg? I'll make a 25 cent bet with you the cone Numbers are not Altec.

    Take a look- no Seeburg anywhere. Standard over the counter paper boxes. If you are willing to buy a bundle of 25 almost any good box company will have them.

    If you wanna see a real oddity, Altec made purple 291's for Sunn.
