I will send you photos of the item. I will ship small things, I won't ship large items. The process will be slow. I am employed, and only have weekends to do any shipping. Buyer pays all shipping. I will split the pay pal fees. I am in Portland Oregon. This will be a long post.

$ 1000 These are unique. Early plywood cabs, excellent condition. 416-8A woofs. Manta Ray horns (forget the model, but large small format) with 902-8A drivers. Again, bug screens removed. Model 19 crossovers. I will consider selling the parts, but not until all are spoken for. BTW....I love the manta horns. To my ears, they beat the 511 hands down.

Ok, what I am keeping just so you don't think I have bailed completely.
904-8A modified duplexes.
Mint Santanas with the 420-8B woofs.
9849-8A pair
8184 18" Subwoofer system


Thanks,

seriously, if anyone has a pair of 420s i can pay up to 285$ for them. i built a pair of of cabs, got them tuned in almost perfect, thought i'd try a crown d150 i had. listened to a bob marley album thinking about how realistic and rich it sounded. when the CD ended so did my 420As. a pop sizzle and smoke. i still haven't decided whether i'm going to put the amp on ebay for parts or take it out to the field and see what 100 rounds will do to it
