I ordered my OTS S&M on March 30, 2009 and it's probably still another 6 weeks out. Bummer.... But I received my new cabinets for it already. Croc tolex. The cabinet has an ET-65 speaker (Celestion GT-65 clone) and a Green Beret (Celestion Greenback clone) from Ware House Speakers. I'm breaking in the speakers today with a 7VAC signal directly to the speakers. 10-15 hours (with an hour between each hour) should burn them in nicely. They actually sounded good last night hooked up to a Peavey 50 amp. They were a little tight. I've never used Ware House speakers but I have friends that use them and they say that are every bit as good as Celestions/Eminence are.

Wow, that looks good.!

Edit:-

What would look really nice is a cream faceplate and brown chicken head knobs. I wonder if Nik has a CAD drawing for the faceplate?

You are so right. A Cream colored faceplate with the Brown chickenheads....  Maybe if the faceplate becomes available in other colors. I may change to red chicken heads for better viewing in the dark... I'll try it and see how it looks... maybe not so good? maybe good? Time will tell. First, I have to wait for the amp to show up first.  I had a Rivera Duarte that had a Palomino two tone cabinet with brown faceplate and cream colored knobs... Very nice looking.... What about it Nik? can we "custom" order different color faceplates?

Arrived at work this morning and had an email from Ceriatone. My OTS S&M has been shipped!

It's been exactly 30 days since I ordered/paid for it. I was told it would be 6-8 weeks (possibly longer) so I am very happy!

Early in the week, the fun begins!

Kudos to Ceriatone!

OTS shipped on Wednesday. Arrived on Friday morning. TWO days from Malaysia. It took 8 days to get an amp from GC in Phoenix to Salt Lake City!

Great shipping and everything was packed EXTREMEMLY well and arrived in perfect condition.

But having to pull 1st repair on amp and it was only on for about 10 hours in the burn in period. Bummer....
