Latest speaker cab
I'm really into the 30s and 40s stuff lately. Here is my take on an early century speaker cab.
If it don't get hot and glow, I don't want it !

Very cool! Reminiscent of the EH150 cab.

Looks great. How thick is the wood that you bent? The bend looks like about a 4" radius (a guess based on the screws, wood grain and pure guess). Did you use metal sheets while steaming? Thanx.

I like the old look and you did a great job with that cab.

That is really nice. great job! Would look good with a walnut burl like period furniture.

I suspect that cab was built using the kerf bending method rather than steam bending.

It was Birch plywood that I got from a shelving unit back. All wood was salvaged from the library that was torn down at the high school I work at. I used kerfs and a steam Iron over damp towel.

70% open. I like to place in front while playing and using the open back as monitor.
