TW cab builder needed

Post by xtian »

I thought I had cabs. They arrived today, and were not up to par. No sanding between coats left the surface very rough to the touch. Lots of filler in joins where wood was not cut true. One big knot on one side, with an actual HOLE. Varnish drips and bumps. Glue showing thru stain. Is that enough?!?

Now I need two new TW head cabs. Your recommendations welcome. Northern California preferred.

Thanks!

Damn, that looks worse than one of my finish jobs. And I suck at finishing.

What a bummer! How much did they (over) charge for these cabs?

All in, $820 for two cabs. I sent him photos and everything, and he just said, "Sorry you're unhappy, send them back for a refund." He even sent a return shipping label. So no trouble at all, just disappointment, and a six week setback.

For the money you spent they should have been golden.
That's too bad when somebody isn't a skilled craftsman and they do a poor job.

Hope you get something good!

I think it's worse when they ARE a skilled craftsperson, and they STILL do a poor job.

Great service and wants everything to be perfect.

Yeah Mikey is making some great looking stuff, and if isn't just about the nicest guy in the World, I'll eat that knot in pic 1.
