Blues jr Cabinet

[mhz88]

Does changing the cabinet of a blues jr make a difference ? Say, changing to a pine dovetailed cab.

Yes it could. Moving from plywood or MDF, whatever it is now to dovetailed pine boards will caus the cab to ring differently most likely emphasizing certain mid freqs.

Whether or not you like the effect will be your decision. Fender was using pine cabs up until mid to late 60's I think.

thanks scott. Does that also hold true in lower practice volumes ?

Maybe a little.

The speaker has to be pushing air and vibrating that whole cabinet for more of that effect. It's a sympathetic resonance thing going on.
