Smile Salutations from the big Syd! ney :)

Recently buying a BG from auctions (It was one of those spur of the moment things), and after stumbling into this forum; Here I am! So here's a few pic's I took sometime after I bought it

NotE: These are old pictures, I've added another amp to make it 1300w! and I've cleaned up the wiring..
