BUT to do it properly you need to also HALVE your OHMs. ie: you got a 5150 4x12 that is 16 Ohms-you pull 2 power tubes and then flip the ohm switch to 8. No biggie.
CONGRATS ON THE SUPA-DUPA-DEAL!
That's about as good as me getting my 5150 full stack a couple years back from some pawn shop for $550 OTD!  |
Yeah, I knew about halving the power of an amp that way, I just assumed that he didn't know what he was doing.
