Guitar Head
How to build a guitar amp that works with a amplifier head?
I want to build my own guitar amp, but I don't know how to, also i would like for it to be compatible with a guitar amp head. If you know anything please help, or post a link that explains how to build it, Thanks-Aaron
What you're really asking is how to build a speaker cabinet and not an amplifier. You already have the amplifier, that's the "head".
A cabinet is basically an input jack, soldered into a circuit board.
That circuit board has 4 speaker wires going from it.
Each speaker wire goes into it's own speaker.
(Cabs typically have 4 separate identical speakers, usually 25 or 75 watts.)
Then pack all that up into a large wooden box, with a cloth screen in the front to protect the speakers, and voila! You have a cabinet!
This requires woodworking knowledge, electrical knowledge, and you have to make sure the Ohm setting matches your head, my advice would be to copy a popular model for reference, such as the Marshall 1960 (model not year) cabinets with 75watt speakers, the most popular cabinets being used (although not the best by far)
