captainbeefheart Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 If anyone is interested in the La Scala speakers they showed briefly in the video they were purchased by Jerry Garcia's mother as the bands first PA system in 66'/67'. Jerry later gave them to the Hell's Angels for their clubhouse system complete with a Sansui amplifier. Pretty darn neat right! https://insheepsclothinghifi.com/grateful-dead-hi-fi-auction/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the resources, but who knew they had the real thing. Until now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
