Location: Las Cruces, NM | I don't know what it is, but I wish I could afford to buy it. It is the answer to my grandson's signature Peavey amp if they are telling the truth about the volume. Fortunately for Las Cruces I can't afford anything. |

Location: Scotland | This is highly innovative design for the time, but by modern standards they're underpowered, & bulky, especially with the transit cover on. Over $1500 30 years ago? Ouch!!!!!. I'd bet they sound good though. One of these with a little mixer would make a MONSTER acoustic guitar rig.

Location: Las Cruces, NM | "sound beam projector" I WANT IT!!
just the name has me hooked, "Alright you nosy annoying neighbor, the sound beam projector is swinging in your direction, prepare to eat glass you fool, here comes the last three chords you will ever hear as your eardrums will melt into fused hammer, anvil and stirrup and the hair on your head blows away and your face takes on a permanent windblown appearance like an out of control botox treatment. You'll learn to mess with a sound beam projector system in the hands of a master of retribution."
I guess you could play music with it too. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | Just the look of the thing makes you want to have it! Of course the shipping will probably be twice what it costs! |

Location: Las Cruces, NM | It looks like $149.99 is going to get it, it would be interesting if whoever got it is on the board. I'd like to hear what it really sounds like. |
