This was a build for Ben's mate.
Will it reach him?
This was my old vibrolux, so I repurposed it - with a cheap price. Its dovetailed pine, and the control panel cutout is filled, and its less than square
I love it, it's hard to let it go...
stained the inside as that ply looked virginal
old suitcase style? thinking of doing a pedalboard similar
full facial

So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Re: This was a build for Ben's mate.
I've built a pine Marshall 4x12. I left it as a ported cab too, so 2 x 12 greenbacks diagonal.
I loved it, apart from anything else I could lift it with one hand. The back was 12mm ply. but the rest was pine. If you're looking for tight then no, but if you want something a bit more mellow yes.
Just as loud as a standard marshall and way less beamy. Not djent but excellent for everything else.

Damn straight, price of pine at the usual outlets is ridiculous, if this keeps up I need cheaper sources!griff7628 wrote:Thanks bg. I have a lot of fallen 100+ year old radiata pine trees on my farm. We should start a business..

I can do anything you'd like I can do black or blue or blue and black or anything your imagination can think I bought a load of tweed and thats my first batch. I'm working on a 2x12 rectifier clone at the mo. I've done Marshalls, you name it
Its probably going to be blue eh?
