Swapping speaker on MKV combo

[iceman]

What is the process? Looks like you need remove the front grill via the 4 screws, but looks like the amp itself is tight on top of the grill. I'd rather ask first then learn the hard way. Thanks.

I was able to swap mine out through the back by removing the wooden plate and reverb tank. Took just a couple minutes.

Cool that it can be completed from just the back, thanks.

yes, the mark v is rear loaded. first mark that is not frontloaded.

you can fit a pretty big speaker in there. a 12L will fit if you move the reverb tank to the rear panel. you may need longer mounting studs if you stick a 12L or another cast frame speaker in the amp. I did.

And a trailer hitch to move it with...

that goes without saying! :lol:

I ended up taking the 12L out since it made Extreme mode too bright for my tastes. Stuck with the MS12 up till now. 8)
