Biil, so how does a FSK sound with a JBL? Everyone, myself included, seem to use a BLack Widow as a replacement.

I think it sounds great ! As far as a replacement,
mine came with it . That is what I don't understand.
Do you think Fender has changed speakers or do I have old stock of the first SK's. What ever, the sound is right up there with my Evans.
I own a Session 400, a Nashville 400 with the Fox mod and a stock Vegas and the Fender will blow them away. Not to say the Peavey amps are bad. They all sound very good.
Guess I have too much time on my hands. Sense I retired I have been checking out lots of amps. I have been a Vegas fan as well as a Evans fan for a lot of years. Just happened that the SK has a sound that I really like. Just would like to know where the JBL came from. I tried to call Bobbe all day. That is where the amp came from. :D

A JBL K-130 in a brand new Steel King? Huh?...

They've not made that speaker in years...right? You must have bought it used? Do I hear Rod Serling?...
