Sorry, I missed your 1st post about how many speakers it had. The second
version Tremolux cab had the 2×10 configuration with the same dimensions.
According to “Fender Amps” the change to 2x10s occured in early 62 with rough
white/oxblood for a short time and then changed to wheat late in 62, smooth
white/gold sparkle in late 63, and BF in 64. As you’ve already figured out,
12’s will fit in there just fine! BTW the earlier 1×10 did have the tone
ring and a Tremolux head is 23″ wide.
