How many Barefaced vintage T are there about?

I have a Vintage T Sitting under my Trace Elliot V6, a superb combination in every respect except the weight of the amp. I have the crazy idea of experimenting with running another Vintage T alongside. The overkill potential is high I know but what the hell...?

So I was looking around for a second hand cab and read somewhere there were very few made, the number 3 comes to mind. Are there really only 3 of these cabs in existence? If so, and if V6s were also quite limited in numbers (100?) I seem to have quite a rare set up. Two vintage Ts would make it quite something.

Do you use the pad on the tweeter? Probably best just getting a plain vintage and turning the tweeter up, maybe its already padded some, two separate tweeters will make a mess. Fairly sure there are more Vintages about than that, they were pretty popular among people who refused to believe 1 15 could be enough.

Or prefered the width of the cabinet when placing a full-sized amp on top... and the increased height without having to balance it on a stand/beer crate... :rolleyes:

Why don't you make it your mission to own [i]all[/i] the Vintage Ts ever made? Now there is a noble calling... B)

Ah ha, yes, why indeed. If there really are only three available it shouldn't be too hard.

They were discontinued in favour of the Super 15 because that wasn't the case.

Yes, I'd though about a Super 15 as well. I don't use a lot of the tweeter so the one in the Vintage would be more than enough. If I had two Vintages I could always just disconnect one tweeter but then I might as well get a Super 15. Something about the idea of two matching cabs still appeals though.
