Sweet Will!

Here is one of the CONCERT boxes with a CB Gitty amp and 2 speakers that are 4 OHM from an old TV.  I put the speakers on the sides to preserve the great looking front.

That helps and sounds useful as heck.  Thanks!

Thanks UJ!!

The box in the pic is not a real amp, just a label. If you see my next pic you will see the L- pad.

Here is what it does.....

L-pads adjust the relative volume of driver(s)/speaker(s) connected to them by placing added resistance in series.

So on a tube amp you crank the volume to max & adjust the L-Pad to get the volume & tube breakup your looking for. Makes a great vintage tone.

Hope this helps.

It looks cool.   Sorry it is unclear to me what it does.  ?
