Grand daddy GE- 155 (Cabinet done)
#11

  Getting the exact speaker with the G.E logo stamped in the bell would take time, but substitutes can be found much more easily. To me the speaker in this E-115 looks like a painted and rebadged Magnavox speaker, I don't know what the E-103 had originally. The speaker being missing may be a point of concern, it's possible that some fool may have removed it thinking they could use it with their car stereo, or it could have been due to a burned out field coil from a shorted capacitor.
