Just want to know what you folks think of this one !
Me and my lead-guitarist was playing with this idea last night !
* 10" sp. are great in 4x10 cabs, right ?
* 12" sp. are the most popular in valve amps, right ?
* 15" are great for more bottom end, like the Peavey Delta Blues, right ?
. . . so why not build a custom cab from solid pine with dove-tail joints (father is a retierd woodworker - will be a piece o'pi$$ for him), with a 15incher in the bottom, 12" just above it, and a 10" just above the 12" . . .
Weight-wise we are not too worried, as it will (we think) not be much heavier than a regular 4x12.
Size, no problem, we just wack it on the back of his pick-up !
Money wise, we will only have to pay for the speakers as my father has more than enough solid pine in the work-shop.
We also know a local guy that will cover the cab and add the front cloth for next to nothing !
Amp-wise, we can either use a Peavey Classic 30 or 50 . . .
(as we have one of each)
* What do you guys think of such a project ?
* Will it work ?
* Will the three diff' size speakers work well-together ? ie: will they compliment one another, AND will you still be able to hear the diff. strenghths (personalities) of each ?
* Any speaker recommendations for such a project ?
. . . or is this just a waste of time ?
Thanks to all !
