Nah, got it from weber. Just realized that my post up there was a bit misleading in the verbiage eh? Amp is home made, not the cab or chassis or anythnig liek that >_<

That *almost* looks like it might go in, if you angled it past that ridge for the back panel? The first amp i build i had the same issue, when i was still running a tube recto. but i could make it just barely fit, by angling it in. Taking it back out was a paint in the bllz tho. Luckily i hacked that first cab together out of scrap, so ditching it to hack another one together was only a few hours and no big deal.

Of course, shortly thereafter, i ended up going to a wee little SS recto that i built into a tube base, and is all of maybe two centimeters tall. :facepalm:

Nah it wont, the socket sits too high above the chassis. I was looking for bottom mount sockets a la dynaco, but they were all PCB mount and i want chassis mount because i have no way to secure a PCB other than hot glue hahaha.
