Title: Is it possible to fit a JTM45/50 in a smaller chassis? Post by: yagoo nana on June 12, 2008, 03:13:05 PM Is it possible to fit a JTM45/50 in a smaller chassis? I reckon the standard size is too big to sit on my cabs, I'm also thinking about putting a 45 into a combo, again it seems like it's going to be impracticably large for this.
Any suggestions/ideas? Title: Re: Is it possible to fit a JTM45/50 in a smaller chassis? Post by: 72sg on June 19, 2008, 10:09:50 PM I'm no expert, but here's my take.
These chassis/layouts are already right sized: not much if any wasted space, and not crowded. You would have to undertake a custom layout, risking artifacts like parasitic oscillation, noise and heat, for little gain. I don't see where you could significantly reduce the chassis footprint. You can definitely play with cab dimensions, where these guys will go into a 23" cab, a regular 26" Marshall small box, or the ridiculously oversized 29" standard Marshall. Are you really talking smaller chassis, or do you mean a smaller cab? Title: Re: Is it possible to fit a JTM45/50 in a smaller chassis? Post by: yagoo nana on September 23, 2008, 07:23:27 AM I was thinking both chassis & cab size. Some of those Marshall heads are crazy big IMHO, and the Bluesbreaker combo is similarly large.
I have a JTM45 pre-built chassis in the post as I write this, so I will try and fit it into a smaller cab/combo. When, I originally wrote this I was mainly thinking of squeezing it into a 1x12 combo. And, I am still thinking about this, but I keep changing my mind. The flexibility & cool look of a head cab is very tempting too. At this rate, I will need a combo & a head :D |
