Have this guy build you a custom cab to your specs for FAR less than most.

I got a quote for a slant 2x12 in custom dimensions ,convertible back, NO Handle cutouts and custom tolex, grill cloth, piping to match my PORT city 2x12 OS, for $160 unloaded.

His unloaded price list:

Cab Price Dimensions
1X12 84.99 17X14.875X11
1X15 94.80 18.5X18.5X14
2X10 114.80 27.5X14.875X17
2X12 114.80 27.5X14.875X14
4X10 159.99 29X29X14
4X12 179.80 29X29X14

That is maaaaad pimpin. I want a 4x12 for my Mofo head. Dear God the coolness!
 
Diezel makes a nice high quality front loaded 2x12...Im using thier rear l. ones for a vintage feel, but the fronts are killer,from what people tell me.

It's nice when you don't have to pay $300 extra for a fancy nameplate! :D

Its a good example of cabinet profit margins, the "name" companies gouge us.

I have 2 - 2x12 Buzzbombs on order since last January. I am not sure if the order will be filled this decade. Always a pile excuses from Tim. I would recommend staying away from Ear Candy.

I have a stupid question.. what is the difference constrcution wise? (I know what the difference is sonically, hell you guys said it previously in this thread)

I guess obviously, the front loaded cabs the speakers are loaded from the front, and rear loaded blah de blah blah.. I guess I just never noticed the difference or at least I have maybe never owned a front loaded cab before? Every time I open a cab up it looks exactly the same to me.

Yeah, Ear Candy should change its name to 'Nose Candy'...I think the guy's doing a little bit too much ::sniff, sniff::
 
Man the boutique industry must be really booming if all these dudes can actually afford to be cokeheads...
