Needed something light to lug around for practice & always wanted a 1x12 for recording as well, so I got a 12" Emi Legend GB128 & built a cab for it. It's 13mm MDF (HDF) with a ply baffle & semi-open back. Had a bit of a problem with the tolexing my first time around... in that, the glue I used would'nt dry & the whole thing bubbled like crazy so I had to rip it all off a week later,scrape/sand & re-do it with 3M spray-on glue. That worked like a charm.
Apart from a few minor ****-ups (handle was put on the wrong way, exposed seam upward & then epoxied from the rear so I can't switch it around..piping is a bit wiggly/not super straight etc..) I finally got it all finished a couple of days ago & it looks pretty cool/sounds freakin' awesome! Can't say enough good stuff about the GB128..I really love it with all my amps.
The one it really compliments though is my Cicognani Brutus...makes it sing like you would'nt believe. That amp was always a fun amp to play but tended to be a bit buzzy/grainy at lower volumes. Not anymore..It absolutely screams now, nice juicy mids, fat tight lows & the top end sounds ultra sweet/3D..the buzz has completely disappeared!
Anyway..couple of pics...
