Genz Benz G-Flex 2x12 Cabinet

I use to own two of these and now I own one. The one I have kept is one of the early ones that has George Lynch's autograph on the jack plate and the handles are on the side of the box. George hand signed a few early on and than they began printing his signature on the plates. I mentioned to Genz Benz that I noticed George was using these wooden slip covers for his cabinets while on tour. They told me that they do not regularly produce these but since I noticed George using them they said they would build me one and they did:-)

I’m using a Gretsch 6120N New Nashville, a Hamer Monaco III, and a Taylor acoustic. I run the electrics though a Genz-Benz El Diablo amp with a Genz-Benz 2x12 cabinet, and my onstage effects consist of Line 6 DS-4 and DM-4 pedals, a Fulltone Fat Boost overdrive, an EBS BassIQ envelope filter, and a Dunlop Cry Baby 535.
