Are you looking for something that is completed or a "raw" cabinet you can finish yourself?

Correct, no hardware or tolex, just raw wood.

Mojotone has cabinets, you can customize them if you want.


There are other places, Google is how I found them. Don't be afraid to reach out to them and ask questions, I have found some that offered good prices.

Guitar Cabinets Direct is another one. I have bought a couple of fully finished cabs from them. Even a finished cab will likely require drilling the chassis mounting holes.

Hello --

I have goal, once my amp workshop gets unpacked and I can finish in-progress builds, to source at least a few finished cabinets from Derrick Bell, aka "Veteran Amp Cabinets". His workshop is near Trenton and has been creating amp cabinets for several years, including production for Trinity Amps.

Check through these threads -- https://www.guitarscanada.com/threads/c ... er.297424/ & https://www.guitarscanada.com/threads/c ... er.297424/. You'll find several examples of his work and contact info there.

There are also suggestions for other builders including one in Quebec that uses a tag @PTWamps. His work looks exemplary too.

Best ..

(edited to add a bit)

This guy: https://www.ebay.com/str/pineguitarspea ... 492.l74602

His name's Reggie and he has the lightweight pine and does not glue-up - all panels are 1-pc. Prices are reasonable as well.
He's got to have what you need and if it isn't in his store reach out to him and he can probably make it for you.


cheers,
