Blown Jensen Alnico 5 Concert Series PM Woofer Speaker
Item Details
Notes from Third Man Records Archivist Ben Blackwell:
Fascinating piece of White Stripes tools of the trade. This greenback, Italian made Jensen speaker is labeled, on a piece of neon tape, “BAD London blown? 6/13/07.” Most likely in the hand of White’s guitar tech Jim Vincent, this speaker was seemingly used at in one of White’s amplifiers (either Silvertone or Fender) leading up to that date, a run of shows which included the band’s final session at the BBC’s legendary Maida Vale studios and gigs across mainland Europe, all in the support of the soon-to-be-released Icky Thump album. Knowing the swath of tunes that rung out through this speaker, at the very least causing it to appear to be blown, just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.
