Amp Cabinet

OK, so some of you have heard that the amp class at the school is going to start making the cabinets for their amp class.  Well, I was able to get in on the initial student build of these cabs.  It should be interesting to see how the cabinet changes the amps sound.

The cab is made out of maple and is finished clear.  The maple has some staining to it which you may see as gray in the photos.  The planks of wood are brought together using dovetail joints.  Enjoy the photos!

The maple starts as rough lumber.

After some cleaning and cutting, here are the sides of the cabinet.

Top and Bottom

The main box all glued up.

The baffle board for the speaker to attach to inside.

Hear are the boards for the back of the amp.

Here is the side all finished with a clear coat.

Tight dovetail joints will help this cab take a beating.

Can't forget the handle.

The back of the finished amp cabinet.

All finished with a wicker front.
