awel Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Hand made 4X12 with Celestion Vintage 30, here is my new toy:
awel Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 Now thats sweet looking, why the lighter tolex? Do you gig? If you do thats going to get dirty real quick.... V30 best speaker they make IMO Yes I gig, I know it will be dirty, but it will look even more vintage :) And yes again about the V30, same opinion :)
SlashPerryBurst Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I know the feeling there. I once had a new cab delivered to my work address. After work, I had to find a taxi that would accept it. I eventually did. When the taxi stopped, he stopped at the wrong side of the road. I grabbed the cab (which was in a box, making it more difficult) and started running across the road. It was wet. All of a sudden, a car came around the corner fast. I panicked, slipped and fell. The cab landed on top of me and took the wind out of me. The taxi driver had to get out and lift the cab off me.

Now that had to be something to see!!!
SlashPerryBurst Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Now that had to be something to see!!! It was not one of my finer moments. Let's put it that way. Despite the back ache it caused, I'd just recently bought a goldtop and blasting it through the new amp certainly helped to ease the pain.
awel Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 Love the cab. What does the N.O.S stand for? Thanks. N.O.S for Name Of Sound http://www.nos.kingeshop.com/
bonzoboy Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 That's a very professional looking job-I tip my hat to you.Vintage 30s are a great choice for speakers.What kind of wood did you use,3/4 birch plywood like Marshall does,and does it weigh as much as the Marshall 1960 cabs?I have 3 4/12 cabs and all except for my Marshall MG 4-12 weigh 90 lbs + and of course my Leslie is no featherweight either.I have to seriously think about my cabinet situation since I have degenerative disc disease as well as arthritis in my spine and after having a spinal fusion and as I posted earlier this week I was also just diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation.When I get back gigging again I'll have to hire a couple of roadies for sure.

Sorry to hear about you health problem. It waights 110 lbs( 50kg), but it sounds incredibly well, I 'm sure the weight, influence a lot the sound.
