Jack 212 build

#1 Post by MrthaKH »

I have a few more photos that I will upload later, but I didn't document as well as I should have.

Any way... Here is where I stand with my build. Got the cutkit from Leland, and he has been great. Highly recommend.

Indeed so no tweets. I might build a Jack 112 with some sort of tweet setup in the future if I like this enough.

Do you use the tweets on your top cab when used as a bass stack?

Yes I do. I like a lot of twang in my tone. That said, I have never run without them to see how much difference they make. Could be that I don't really need them, but I like how it sounds so I don't mess with it.

You can always EQ them out. Since you build the crossover you even know what frequencies to cut. 8)

I think if I build another cab it would be a Jack 12 with the compression drivers. This 212 should be plenty though as long as I can keep my guitarist from being an idiot about volume.

What crossover do you run with the tweeterless jack?

Clamp city! Should be ready for routing/sanding/duratex by the weekend. Exciting when a box starts coming together.

All I have left is some pieces on the top and bottom of the back to mount the tilt back handle and wheels. Then it is time for the router.

Added some material for the tilt back handle and wheels. Once the PL dries I will route and sand.
