Is it possible to import a celestion greenback and make a 12x1 cab cheaper than whats available on the Market?

Amp tinkerers and people who aren't afraid of 700 volts or so in here....

...and $190 shipping.

If you do butt joint it helps to add 1x1 pine strips in the corners for support and also to run silicone sealant along all inside joins so it's airtight.

yes, its shipping that eats most of my costs, I'd love to charge less - but even though I buy enough stuff to do two or three cabs at a time, there is hardly any profit/margin/worth. And its worse now post covid.

Local suppliers are 'out of stock' on most things useful.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I think these have a greenback G12H speaker in them

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...
