I saw Jaco, on more than one occasion, through different rigs. He always sounded like Jaco, because his tone was in his fretless and his hands. Sure, that has to be the priority but without sounding cocky, I'm already close to that point with my technique. Last gig I just went straight into the PA ...

I realize how shitty the Acoustic 361's frequency response is on paper. The thing is though that this exact (extremely non-linear) response emphasises the most important ranges when it comes to electric bass and live gigging. Hence why Jaco kept using them well into the 80s even when better alternat...

Thanks a lot. I guess that 370 plan combined with the rough drawing I posted earlier of the 360 should give me enough information. Going to print that out and discuss it with a Schreiner friend of mine (strange that english only has the word carpenter for both jobs). Although that plan says 3/4"...

Already asked in that forum but it's completely dead.

Yes that one I already have but it's missing so much information. Like what wood to use, what connections to use, which screws etc. I mean for a start, I don't even know if those are inside or outside measurements. There is enough info there, if you can't fill in the blanks then either you are not ...

Well, the reason is that I want the exact Acoustic 361 sound. That is why I bought the drivers a couple of years ago. Also, any horn that's larger would mean I couldn't fit two of them in my car. Plus I have no need for that lower octave since it would probably anger most sound engineers.

Since the Acoustic rebrand company is no longer in business, maybe the founders/designers would be open to giving me the plans.
I have a hard time finding information about the reissue company. Does anybody have some names for me who could make sense to connect with regarding this?

It has to be the 361 because I already own two Cerwin Vega 188EB.
I know that I am not the first one to build a replica.

Hello!

I am looking for exact plans for the Acoustic 361 18" W bin horn.
Does anybody have an idea where I might get those?
