Thats impressive...

Update on aluminium wedge cab.... ..after testing the first production unit, which I was very happy with, John Dixon decided to increase the sealing with custom gaskets, something he developed when supplying the US airforce. Because the cab volume & port is optimised for the Celestion BN12-300S, in theory the cab efficiency/clarity should improve. I & a bass mate in Birmingham received the new version 10 days ago and after playing with a variety of basses and cab comparisons...the theory is reality..we are both v'pleased. Sound is subjective...(I use it for monitoring +DI & small venues) ...so all I can say is I can achieve all the sounds & volume I need with more depth & clarity than the cab's I have had (Ashdown, Greenboy, Quilter, Agular, EA, etc)....and the cab is only 11.5kg. (see pic's on page 1) Lid is ~1.5kg John, has designed a 1x10 + compression driver, which I'm looking forward to trying. John is a founder of Scott Dixon, I am a customer & have no commercial interest (except paying the invoice!)

Great...do have a look at the light weight cab I got 10 days ago for comparison British hand made. It larger because I wanted to get the full volume recommended by Celestian

I think someone was asking what speakers are used?...Jenson

The AT 112 H would be my choice as it has front port. I have never liked rear ports because they are very position/venue sensitive imo...if you go ahead let us know where you purchased & your opinion

A shout out for Anaconda ...this is what Andrew built for me, (Jazz vibe) now my #1 followed by ACG Finn & Recurve and Ritter R8 https://www.anacondabasses.co.uk/Basses/featured-bass---1

Wrong # should be 07964 948476

This is the m/c that stamps out the sheet parts for a triple case in 10 min's

UPDATE...apologies the aircraft aluminium is 1.2mm NOT 2.4mm the baffle is ~3mm

oooohh hear we go...don't look at my basses for sale!!!!!!!!!!

Thats what I have found also our rodie cant break it!!! one benefit many people miss...I am the oldest member of the band and will prob' died at a gig...so the case is self addressed so they can just fold me in and post

Thats correct...its easy to solve...you need more basses!!!!! and John has the new head and bottom restraints available...ha

....and high quality damping wall lining

You are right...for me the worst is around 300 to 500hz, thats why sealing all joint, rigidity bracing and the correct cab volume so an efficient port design can be used. It took 5 designs & 3 builds to get this right.

I can only share my experience. .. 3 guitar case: No std stock (just demo) I provided John with make/model and sizes of guitars. He gave final size/weight & cost inc head restraint system. I ordered it was added to the production schedule, cut and hand built in his factory over 2 days. 1x12 Bass cab....this could be costed and priced with extras. The design was completed and signed off yesterday (Sat 9th May 2020) so I'm sure John will review the costings etc....we need to encourage development & support craftspeople such as John...as we do bass Luther's

Now, thats an idea!

Wheels on the bottom and handle on top...talk to John 079649476...as he will want to know what guitars

I've cheated and put larger feet on the front of the amp with narrow scores to anchor to the lip...or...

FYI.... Another lightweight 1x12 option (custom) with front port
