  • Don't throw out that old amp, make it into a sick cab that you can use with whatever amp you want. Here's how!

      It makes everything take twice as long but it's still the best!

    I have a 150 watt Line 6 I haven't got to use yet. 😔..
    I do have a a 2x12 Randall Cab from a 200watt Tube that I ripped the INPUT JACK out of..
    I want to use my Line 6 except the speakers don't have any speaker jacks.. the Randall has wires that slide over the speaker wires.
    Any suggestions?

      Yeah man, wire jacks to everything and run you a speaker cable between them, simple and flexible.

    Did I search for combo "cab" or "cat" conversion!? Either way I got both so great video

    I’m in the process of doing pretty much exactly the same. Is it possible to solder the 2 cab speaker cables into 1 input Jack? 🤔 if so, any tips/advice? Would be greatly appreciated 😁

    • @ForsytheVideo

      It definitely is! Just be mindful of the om rating of your speakers because you'll most likely be running in Parallel, meaning you'd have to divide that rating down. Two 16 ohm speakers would come out to an 8 ohm rating for instance.

      @@ForsytheVideo thanks mate! 😊 my old Marshall Valvestate 2x12 totally died! (It wasn’t the best sounding amp in the world anyway…)
      Thanks to your video and reply, those nice Celestion speakers are not going to waste 😎👍 thanks mate!

    If the amp part worked that would have been one of the good crates for metal! Great cabinet sound though. I liked the flamed maple panel. I recently wired up a 5150 cab with v30s and scumback bh75s x pattern.

    That tiger/flame maple looks awesome. The back plate was a solid job and it sounds old school. Kudos 👏

    HEY !! so i just got this exact amplifier and i turned the main unit into a guitar head so I'm left with an empty 2x12 body with the speakers. I'm looking to do the same thing to turn it into a proper 2x12 but i don't have experience on wood !! can you give me any advice on what to do when turning the body into a 2x12 ??? btw I'm subbing !!

      Just follow this video I suppose, I used 3/4" plywood I believe. If you have specific questions let me know!

    I have an old 1950s Alnico PA speaker and it sounds amazing with fuzz.
