Re: Hemp material guitar speakers?
I have had a pair of Cannabis Rex speakers for a few years now and they are smooth, clear, and LOUD. I love them.

Re: Hemp material guitar speakers?
Hemp was used as a fiber for rope, paper, cloth, etc., for millennia (50,000 years ago!)
“In 1937, the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 was passed in the United States, levying a tax on anyone who dealt commercially in cannabis, hemp, or marijuana. The passing of the Act to destroy the U.S. hemp industry has been disputed to involve businessmen Andrew Mellon, Randolph Hearst and the Du Pont family.”
This was to push people to use synthetic fibers from DuPont and wood pulp paper from Hearst.
So that’s why we don’t use lots of hemp products today.
It’s always about money.

Re: Hemp material guitar speakers?
My choice now, is either a new 1x12" extension cab (with another "specially designed" speaker"- that sounds OK- though not brilliant)-
Or buy an alnico, doped Weber with hemp cone-
Or some pedals, spare strings-
Because soon, I'll be a poor man. For 5 months or so.
just wanted the best tone , before my money's gone.

The state of Georgia was settled by Europeans because they knew they could make a living growing hemp for ship rope.
Hemp still grows wild near the coast, but I don't if any commercial outfits exist these days that would contribute to your speakers.

Also, if your driving along in the south or midwest and you see an Hemp farm -don't try smoking it unless you want a bad headache. Hemp for industrial purposes will take you out..

Eminence has some great sounding speakers for not a lot of money.
I’m putting a pair in my Marshall Code100 combo. The stock speakers aren’t that great.

Nah, it won't get you high -just a headache -it's called "industrial" because its licensed to be grown in the US for industrial applications like fabric, oil etc etc..

I take this back -it will certainly get you high at some point, but by that point you will feel so ****ty from other effects it wouldn't be enjoyable.
