Was hoping someone could help me identify this thing. I got it on a trade from someone who converted it to just a CAB. There are no labels on it so I have no clue what it is short of opening it up. Was hoping to find out the OEM speakers are and what they're rated at...any ideas?? Thanks!!

That lead was close enough...it's an Epiphone Regent 220 Acoustic Amplifier with 1 - 8" speaker plus 2 - 5" Electar Labs speakers. It's jacked into an Epi Valve Jr 5 watt tube...I wonder if that pairing is ok. And I would be using it as practice for an electric...just a Gibson Special with P90s. I plugged it in and it breaks up a lot lol...

 

Any recommendations for switching out the speakers?

Pete...thanks for the recommendation. I think I'm gonna change out those acoustic speakers and try to go with a 12. It's a pretty decent size cab and I'd like to reuse it somehow...might have to drop to a 10. Any specific brand and model you'd recommend? I'm not a cab builder, but thought it would be fun. I don't suppose there's a guide out there for ideal volume and stuff for speaker sizes...
