my next question is..................

i got a fender 1x12 cab with 2 jacks on the back of it.

can i plug the amp into it, and then daisy chain it back to the 15" speaker inside the excelsior or is that going to fuck up shit?

i want to say that it may be abit much for the amp, so after a period of time, or at higher volumes you would be doing damage to it, but if you just plugged it straight into the 15inch cab rated the same as the stock speaker then you should be ok

Running a Fender at a 2x mismatch isn't going to hurt it, thousands of Fenders run that way for years and they're fine. However, you probably won't get the optimal volume and response that you would if you had an impedance match.

If you want more volume, though, just changing to a Legend 1518 should do it.
