Alnico bodies if the labels are correct- pic is crappy so confirm. Which means 288 fram turns them into 288G's

They look a bit rusty...
So do I.:emot14:
$493. plus shipping. So much for dirt cheap. nice to know that our beloved Altec gear seems to be holding its value....
I beg to differ, clean them up, new 288 frams, off the 291 frams on FeePay, and you have a $1200 set of 288-g's for about 600.
You don't feel half price is cheap?
Spoiled I guess. Got mine for $400 with a set of 203Bs. For another ~$250, a trip to GPA for service and phragms, I got a much nicer set of 288-16Bs and a set of 203Bs thrown in for "free"....
But AA was that a deal from someone you knew or the bay ? :wink2: I know I will always sell my stuff to my friends at a Discount !Quote:

OK, so they won't fit in a safe deposit box, but they are a lot more fun to play with....Quote:

288G have been called the "poor man's TAD".
