Does anyone know of a good cabinet builder for the Session 500s? I have 2 and wish to lighten them up a bit.
Thanks

Rick Johnson? He's a Forumite. Since they have such heavy power supplies, I'd think about split cabs.
Mojotone might also do it. I'm thinking pine would save weight over that heavy plywood. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

Rick Johnson is the man, if he can't do it, nobody can. |

I don't know if he does full amp cabs, but Dan Huff also does fine speaker cabs. _________________ 2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)

Dwight, if you're wanting to lighten up your 500, it sounds like you are wanting split cabs? If you are, Rick made me split cabs for my NV 400 and they're very well built and my back is all the better... |
