Thinking about a Weber cabinet for my Blues Jr.

[bungalowbill]

I went to the Weber site today and checked out their cabinets. They look nice....3/4 inch pine and the junior cab in 12 inches deep!

I think I might pull the trigger on a tweed and oxblood. Does anyone have any experience with Weber brand cabs? I figure it ought to be a whole bunch better than the original particle board one. If you have any experience with Weber cabs, I would love to hear your opinion.

i think its a cool idea. im sure webers cabs are good quality. on his kits he kinda cheaps out on the electrical componants (ie transformers and such) but the boxes always looked good on the ones ive seen

Weber's cabs are supposed to be pretty good and the extra depth (12" vs. 9-/12" stock) should be very nice.

I do have direct experience with a few Mojo cabs and they are top notch quality IMHO. http://www.mojomusicalsupply.com/ite...972&id=4000099 List is $270 for a Blues Jr. replacement, but you can get a better price from Marsh Amplification (among others).

Thanks for the replies! I'm gonna get one as soon as I get the cash. I think I could fit just about any kind of speaker with that extra depth...it might also have better bass response.

Sounds like a win-win situation.

the solid pine 12" deep box will definitly give you more bottom end, more musical highs too. with the extra depth you could put an alnico speaker in there

That's what I am thinking......But which alnico?

I'm hoping to get a little more volume out of it as well.

a blue of course! you want to spend more on the speaker than the cab right?

I was thinking of maybe a Red fang.

I know this is YEARS after this thread started but I just picked up a JR (cream board), stock except for jj tubes, the weber cabinet and a celestion blue.

IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe how much better this sounds than any other Blues Jr I have eve herd.

SPEND THE MONEY! YOU WON"T REGRET IT!

Excuse the yelling but I am SO excited.!!

Besides Weber, I think there's a few other builders that do some nice oversized pine cabs.
I've seen a few on Ebay.

Either way, the Blues Jr. is a good amp, and has the potential to be even better.
