Dear all,
I am now in a place to either build/modify a cab for a 112 or 212.
Being where I am, I have got 2 speakers that I have heard much about and have no experience with.
The Celestion G12 vintage 30 or Eminence Cannabis Rex.
I understand that the Celestion is more suited towards the British sound and goes well with Marshall.
However I am getting the Rex far cheaper and I am yet to read anything bad about them.
Some people have used them with Marshalls to their liking.
Also, I have never built a cab and am only armed with a Jigsaw, Drill, Screwdriver and that's about it.
All the videos I have seen in YouTube point towards finger-joints which seems to be well beyond my building abilities.
However, I have an old White Horse 4X8 cab (Dont use anymore), I was thinking of cutting a 12 inch hole at the back side of this cab and hook it up, if you know what I mean. The cab is made of MDF and the back side is about quarter inch board.
I know you people have a lot of expertise in these matters and want you to guide me.
Both regarding the selection of Rex and cab build/modify.
Maybe I am insane, but I really am gassing for a speaker upgrade to my DSL20CR.
Cheers
PS: If you need pictures of the cab I am referring to, just let me know
