corson Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 That's a seriously solid build... What are you planning to load 'em with? It was originally intended to be used as a stage prop with no speakers,but now it will be fitted with two Celestion BL12-200X bass speakers. Finding the materials was a problem,the Vynide basketweave was previously not available in the UK and the Vox brown cloth came from Germany. The horn box was stripped down yesterday and will be re-covered and assembled to look like a Vox amp with no electronics in it except for in and out sockets. I managed to spoon an H/H PA150 amp into a '60s Vox Foundation amp for the same guy who now plays left handed for "Them Beatles". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
