I'm putting together the parts to get an abandoned 1963 Gibson GA-30 RVT Invader working again, and it came to me with no speakers in it.
The originals were a Jensen P10R and a C12R. I've acquired a non-working P10R to recone for it, but when I looked at the reconing parts catalog (I recone speakers), I saw that Jensen made nine different versions of the P10R. Jensen had major speaker types and then a "recipe" for a particular application that specified which cone/spider/dust cap combination to use. But I don't know which P10R subtype was originally in this Gibson. The recipe is the letter C followed by four numbers, sometimes with one additional number after a dash.
I can't find any pictures of a Gibson GA-30 RVT that show this detail. There is one pic online of a GA-30 RVT that shows the C12R number (C7324), but none that shows the P10R subtype.
If anyone has one of these amps and could look on the P10R's rim for this number, I'd be much obliged. I know it's a long shot.
