I bought them from the original owner and he bought the whole group together. He has played with a few known acts including Orleans, Pete Seeger and Peter Frampton. It IS major Rock and Roll!
Yikes! I DO hope that you don't try and carry it out on gigs by yourself! There's the other issue, of course. I was in Whittier, Ca on Saturday, and the backline company provided an SVT. I set it to where I was comfortable with the sound, but after the first song of the soundcheck the entire horn section threatened me with death or dismemberment if I didn't turn it WAY down.
