Building Guitar Amp Speaker Cabinets

One day i started to scribble a cabinet on a piece of paper that was flying around and half an hour later the plan was laid out.

Building guitar amp speaker cabinets.

Create a piece of wood large enough to contain the input jack and long enough to span the inside of the guitar speaker cabinet. Primarily the cabinet is a convenient way of housing the speaker so it should be solidly built to ensure no joint vibration unpleasant buzzing and be strong enough to withstand hard use. The box design is acoustically less critical than that for hi fi or pa systems but proper construction is essential. In terms of diy guitar amp cabinet hardware you have a variety of choices.

In my recent holidays i wanted to tinker a little bit and so i decided to build my own 1 12 guitar speaker cabinet. This will leave sufficient headroom above the side by side 10 inch speakers to mount the filmosound on a sliding shelf much like vox did with vintage ac30 combos. Taking some inspiration from michiel helsloot s elektra 185 amplifier i decide to build a taller than standard combo cabinet. As guitar speakers are different so their cabinets are different.

You can create a full back quarter or half back if you prefer. As you might know i m really into guitars and guitar equipment right now. It was only for the pine enclosu. You can find purpose built hardware like corner guards handles and similar or you can go with a diy approach.
