Re: Show your amp!

Very soon, I'm going to get rid of every amp I own and just keep this...



This little green 2x12 bitch does everything I need, and weighs just 29 pounds. I'm done with amps.

Re: Show your amp!

Bout time you finished up that cab and put some tolex on it!

It really is beautiful! Have you considered building another? You could have a mini stack. Would be very cool!

Re: Show your amp!

Thanks. I have spent something like $900 altogether on that cab. I'm not sure I wanna do that again. I think my next project is this:




It's a 4X10 Yorkville cabinet (from my Canadian neighbors). I think I might be looking for (4) 10 inch speakers. They'd have to be low watt speakers to get the 20 watt head to push them properly. I'm also considering a 8 inch speaker and cab for the 2 watt head.

You guys know that you need to be able to physically push the speaker to get the head to overdrive naturally even if it's a low watt head.

Re: Show your amp!

Go Traynor!!

I'm guessing that's way to big a cab (internal volume) to properly tune 4x10s. Once you select your speakers you should do the math. I bet an internal baffle would help. Be sure to insulate it. Traynor speaker cabs sucked. I think it's one of the reasons Traynor never was able to break into the big league back in the 60s - 70s. Most of their amps were phenomenal!

If you ever decide to scrap the cab rebuild, let me know and I'll buy the rubber bumpers off you.

That was $300 for the maple, $220 for the Celestion, $150 plus tool trade for the carpentry on the cab ($100 for the chisels, wood hammer and draw saw), $100 for lacquer, dye and sandpaper and $30 for hardware.

If you need the bumpers...I'll give them to you if you mail me the postage after they arrive. PM me.

Re: Show your amp!

The 4X10 thing wasn't a huge vision for me so a small cab for the 2 watt would suffice. I just need to find an 8 inch speaker.
