10" cab for Vibrochamp

ol man · June 26th, 2008, 04:17 AM

Since Allen amps don´t do exports,
My search for a custom 110-cab for a Fender Vibrochamp goes on.

First I found this exellent input from mr Rob Distefano:

Very instructive, but I don´t dare hitting a hammer against
my poor SF champ

Then found this from Marsh:

Anyone having tried their 10"-version? Good fit? What you say?
Can´t wait to pair the amp with a jensen neo or a ceramic tone tubby

A 10" speaker should fit in the stock cab without any trouble. I had a 10" speaker in my SF Champ, I just trimmed out the stock baffle very carefully so that it looked "factory"... it worked out great. I know Rob D. likes to replace the baffle, and that's a good way to go, too (but much more work if it's glued in!). If I was going to do it again, though, like Hoodster, I'd go with a larger cab to accommodate a 12" (or even a 15") speaker... the single 10" just didn't have enough "thump" for my taste when playing with a band.

A jig saw worked for me.
