I thought it was too early, that’s the Fender site, serial number decided that shows 94/5 so with that and I imagine with it being MIJ and having the stamped tuners it’s going to be 98. Dont get me wrong,I love them, but whenever I play a jazz it just never sounds like the sound I hear from other players 😄

I fancy a 301 and maybe another 406 Wide. How is the definition on the 301? Is it too subby or quite articulate? Thanks -
Thankfully not. 😂

Yes that’s the style. I have to put new bolts on the drivers this week so will take a picture of the actual drivers.

They are both original Eminence drivers with U shaped magnets, however one has been re coned by Wembley Loudspeakers.

My 408 has recently been joined by another 408 and then a 406 which I’ve just finished restoring. I’ve put a thread inbuild diarys. -
I bought an acoustic Control Corporation 406 (2x15) on eBay. It looks considerably healthier in the listing than in real life. However after a 590 mile round trip that started with the idea of just re grilling it, turned into a complete restoration. I’ve done a couple of 406s and many other cabs so wasn’t too daunted by the idea. I stripped the tolex to find some water damage on the base and it was still slightly damp so I let it air dry for a little over a week. In the meantime ordered the tolex and grill cloth and took the handle and castor brackets to be blasted and powder coated. Once dry I sanded the old glue and bits of tolex off. Then filled the rough and damaged parts with 2 pack filler. Sanded again, painted the baffle and re grilled or. Today I Set about re Tolexing the cab and to my delight it was as painless as the stripping was. All tolex on and the cab reassembled inside of a day. The only thing I need to complete it is some new chrome corners.
