The Amp Garage

IMO an AC 30 might be the one for the tone. I have an old one from 60's with a GZ34 and it has way more clean output than my 6G3 Deluxe. Also the tone is rich and chimes with a pair of G12H. 65 deluxe is a little different than a 6G3 but not a lot. They always feel underpowered. The AC30 feels more ...

Ya I use an ASAT G&L but does sound good with it.

I just completed the cabinet for my original 63 vibroverb and wanted to post a picture. Jammed with it on sunday and works pretty well. Although they were brown tolex, I decided to do blonde based on urban myth. The amp was located without a cabinet and had no output transformer plus power transform...

Just got done with a cab and used Hyde glue with a double boiler pan. It was a bit of learning curve but if your in a warm room, it works really well. Main thing is to have your plan together for your cut and tuck around corners and such. I followed and old amp I had to match to the style done on my...

Looks mighty good. I'll bet it sounds great. I need a pair of alnico Jensens for my Fender. How do you like those?

Love those little babes. Nice work.

Just did a fender homebuilt cab with hyde glue and followed the fender corners on a fender amp I have. The next day my brother use a mallet and did a light pound and it sets the cut and looks great. The Marshall cab you show looks really good. I'm still learning and cussing from time to time.

The cab looks great and most important sounds good to your ears.

Thanks for the compliments. We joined 3-1x4 so this is not 1 piece of clear pine. It does look good and I thought about just staining but I have read stories (urban legend ) of a few blond 63 vibroverbs. So the blond vinyl came in and I have hide glue to apply. I've never used hide glue but will rea...

Baffle and mounting Cleats

Brother made a router jig for the speaker cutout. Just drill a 3/16 hole in center.

The box joint will be reversed at opposite ends. This way any 4 pieces will assemble to a box.

Less is more . Do you work for Ikea or some other danish company?

So here is the router corners and the amp mounted. Look nice. I've been waiting a long time to get here. I ordered vinyl and hardware. i'm thinking about the baffle thickness. On my 6G3 deluxe, the thickness is 5/16" plywood with a second layer on the edges so it becomes a 5/8" total thickness.
