Texas Cab Makers

Post by JereFuzz »

Hi folks,

I’m itching for a 4x12. I see that in Austin there is worshipper cabs which seem to cover the metal/doom angle, but I can’t find many other local cab makers. Any recommendations?

I made my comment because none of their photos showed Toltex cabs and Worshipper cabs also create stained wood cabs, and per a reply to my email, don’t offer toltex options. But that cab you posted is quite nice ...

I don't know anything about them, but there's a company called Steamboat Ampworks.

Austin Tone Lab makes their own amps and cabs as well. They're not cheap, though.
