Amp Cover Question

[msgdman]

I am looking for a cover that will go over my Silver Jubilee with 4x12, I only see one for the head, and one for the cab, but I want something I can put over the whole thing, and pull off in one piece, is there such a cover?

Any help is appreciated.

I had my girl friend make mine she has a bunch of material and only cost a few bucks. Good luck with your search though.

I looked for something like that myself a while ago, but couldn’t find anything. How about you buy the cab cover and have a piece of similar, although not necessarily, fabric added to lengthen it accordingly? Choosing a different colour for the extension might even make it more attractive, while certainly more interesting to look at.

It was my Mum in my case , and it’s a really nice thick vinyl cover that doesn’t crease.

It just seems like such a no brainer, I want to cover my cab so the cat doesn't claw or piss on it, but I do not want to have to lift off the head to remove the cab cover, why wouldn't there be a one piece that just drops down over the whole thing.

Not common because it's an accident waiting to happen. Covering up two components stacked leaves room for someone moving the thing without realizing two heavy objects are stacked on top of each other.

There is also the fact that the differing in measurements between the two components makes for a difficult all in one slipover design ie: corners, hems...

Most people don't realize even a top handle is usually offset to balance the weight of transformers when carrying an amp. That is why most handle cutouts in a properly measured cover only align perfectly from one side.

I believe any custom cover company will make you what you want though.

I have these guys do all of mine...

Cat piss sucks I know that!

Larry over at LeCover (dot com) will make anything you want but you will have to give him exact dimensions. I would add maybe an inch extra to the dimensions so that it will slide on and off easily. I guess you could also use speaker cables with 90 degree plugs so you wouldnt have to climb behind it to plug it in each time you pull the cover off.
I wonder if a thick blanket and a bungee cord would work better than a dedicated cover at keeping the cat away?

I have a cover for the head but use a blanket when its put away.

Why not just use travel cases ?

I have a cover for the head but use a blanket when its put away.

And that blanket is just begging for cat piss!

 

[Stringjunkie]

Lol, but yet no cats have ever pissed anywhere near it, ever. So its doing its job.

Thanks for all the comments, I took one persons advice and contacted a person who is making one for me custom.

Got my cover today, very happy with it, got great service from:

Made me exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend, they left a little extra space so cables could be plugged in.

I decided a long time ago... Get my cats fixed - they don't pee anywhere except in the catbox.

Problem solved...

I have 2 females. One's an alpha though & when she came of age, she started spraying & I put an end to that (fixed). She hasn't done it since. I got them both fixed though at the same time...

As far as clawing... I drape a towel over the top, enough to make them not want to do it...
