Have you tried the guitar geek board? People over there are usually pretty good at knowing weird, old, off shoot gear.

I got a Bugera 6260 4x12 combo a bit over a year ago, and it was a pretty bad purchase. It sounds great for an amp of its price, but I've had a lot of problems with it, and somehow I didn't find out that this is pretty common with Bugera owners, while I was researching.

Have you opened the cabs to see what info is printed on the speakers? If they're 70 watt cabs rated at 8 ohm I wouldn't think they'd be very good for bass. Be cautious you don't blow them playing bass through them. They could've been for a PA or keyboard amp rig too.

Yeah, we've popped them open and the speakers have no information outside of some numbers that we've Googled and found no information on. I plan on opening them up again and taking better pictures of everything to see if someone can't help with those details. If we play them, we'll be using guitars with them anyway and I play through a 60 watt head myself, so I'm not too concerned. Hopefully we can figure out what these things are.

I sometimes use my volume pedal as an expression pedal. It's nice, but I don't use it enough to warrant buying another one yet.
