Fender Bassman 100 Speaker suggestions

[hardwareguy]

I've been asked to fix a Fender Bassman 100 amp, not the old one with the 15" but the new-ish one with the 10" driver that isn't much bigger than a practice amp. An open voice coil was found.

Despite my initial optimism inspired by the Eminence Inside logo, I quickly found a custom speaker...It's indeed a 10" but it has a smaller voice coil and an unusual short motor structure that is at least 1/3 shorter than the Legend BP102-4. Xmax and Xsus are both quite low, well below that of the BP102-4 I would think.

The Eminence type number is 101348.

It's probably an Alpha 10. The S2010 is pretty good, BP102 is weak in the mids.

I suspect this is correct save for the impedance. It has the same voice coil diameter and looks to be the same motor too.
