VERY exciting new project that I’ve been working on with Jeff Swanson of Swanson Cabinets for the last few months. A replica of my long time favorite 1968 Marshall Basketweave straight front 4×12 cab. We have documented and measured every spec and detail of this cab right down to the placement of every screw. An exact template has been made of the baffle board for accurate speaker placement, templates also made for the metal handles, caster cup and caster inserts placement, the metal shop that make our amp chassis’s just finished making dead-on accurate metal caster cups. Period correct woods: cabinet grade 15mm Baltic Birch plywood will be used along with solid Fir wood for all of the bracing, trim pieces and large center post. Cabs will be available empty or loaded with speakers of your choice. Empty or loaded, each cab with come with a replica wiring harness with vintage size red & black twisted wire and a black Cliff jack and a set of period correct slotted Fillister head screws and lock washers plus push-in casters. The prototype cab will be built soon and once that’s done and we know the cost, I will come up with pricing. Pictures posted right now are of my actual 1968 cab.
