Ultimate Guide for RE-TOLEXING A CAB pt 2 - Prep and Install Tolex on Marshall Cab - Retolex Series
A step by step guide to re-tolexing a Marshall 1960a 4x12 guitar speaker cab. I also show how to replace the grille cloth and piping.
This old Marshall 1960a cab was built in the early 2000s and has seen a lot of use over the years. I wanted to breathe some new life into this old cab and make it shine again, so I decided to re-do the tolex, grille cloth and piping.
This is part 2 of a 2 video series.

Wiring Guitar Speakers Properly: 2 16 ohm speakers in 8 ohm

    Sanding sealer gave you that texture. That texture is the sealer not in the clear. The clear is showing you the texture Under it. Sanding sealer is for filling the pores and should be sanded afterward. It is not a primer so to speak. You need to level it, just to 320 or something. The next coat, the color will have 320 scratch to grab on too. A good thing because you are going to put enough solid color on it so that will be invisible anyway. Your color coat needs to be perfectly sanded for your gloss to shine up too. And compound - polish afterward. You'll get it keep trying.

      What are the ohms of each cab? If they have the same impedance they may be able to work together, either daisy chained or wired in parallel.
