    Hey, this is a cool idea, I love the convertible option. I am about to hit the kitchen to begin preparing dinner, so I will check the link out a bit later. Quick question though, do they accept custom orders (such as wrapping it in blue snakeskin tolex)?

      these are especially awesome live cabs but they are heavy and not cheap

      This is the brand new Avatar 3D 212 Vertical Forte replica guitar speaker cabinet. These are faithful replicas of the Forte 212 Vertical 3D cabs. The Forte...

        I played it for a few months, and broke the speakers in, then after reading a lot about open back cabinets, I closed the back up tight, and now it is monstrous. I'm really impressed with it.
        Fwiw

        Only downside is, it's rather heavy for a 2x12. Maybe that's why it cranks?
        The absolute best sounding 1/12 cab I have ever played through is my Blackstar!! Spanks many high end 2/12's and with the WGS Retro 30 is just HUGE sounding. BIG fan of these cabs and have owned about anything you can name over the years!!

          I have a modern 2x12 with Greenbacks that I love. Built like a tank, too.

            Re: Talking Cabs

            Okay, so the biggest obstacle preventing me from making a decision is none of the current custom cab options provide this tolex as an option: https://www.speakerbuildersupply.com...e-p/tpeb15.htm

            I really want that specific tolex. I do not build cabs nor do I have the time to learn how to wrap one in tolex. Does anybody know of the best way for me to get a custom 2x12 loaded with C-Rex speakers wrapped in that specific python electric blue snakeskin tolex?

            I am willing to pay a cab builder/tolex wrapper to get it done. I just am not sure who can do it...

                Cool, I can do that.

                Are there any small builders lurking around this forum? If so, I give them permission for solicitation. Or, does anyone know a small cab builder they can refer me to?
