et1058 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Don't know much about this I have had it for 7 years and I have not used it for the past 2 years CARLSBRO Sound Equipment 100 Watt 15" Cab Very loud, very heavy, very reliable. I am pretty sure it was made in the early 60's It has been well used, as you can see from the cosmetics, but still as strong as ever What I am asking is...does anybody have anymore info on this cab and would anybody be interested in it. Offers and info welcome. To be picked up from Liverpool Edited October 16, 2007 by et1058 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I doubt it's a 1960s model. The speaker grill looks very similar to the grill on the Carlsbro guitar combo that the guitarist used in my first ever band in 1977.. Hope that helps, Nik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 If you want info on the cab check the Carlsbro forum - [url="http://www.carlsbro.com/forum/index.php"]http://www.carlsbro.com/forum/index.php[/url] If you stick the pictures and serial number up there those helpful chaps at Carlsbro will check their entirely paper based records and let you know what it is and date of manufacture.

et1058 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 A 1970's GUITAR amp!?!?!? What the hell! hahaha This is a shock to me lol Thankyou for the link for the Carlsbro Forum, I will post there tonight I got the 60's info off a memory I had, when I opened it up a few years ago, and my memory is convinced I saw a date of 1962 printed (or something) but there again I am not sure (might of been a 'serial number' not a date, I dunno, I need to stop waffling, and thats why I asked if anybody had any info, and thanks....definately wasnt expecting it to be a guitar cab tho.

obbm Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 In 1962 there were very few British amp manufacturers period. I remember Vox, Bird, Burns, Fenton Weill, Watkins, Selmer and Linear. Marshall had only just started. This was just pre-Beatles and before the music explosion that they helped create. Carlsboro is most certainly a later period.
