Can CAR Speakers be Used for GUITAR? Skar, 5 Core, Jensen, Celestion

Can you use speakers that are made for car audio in your guitar cabinet? Each of these 4 speakers are played as clean, overdrive and distortion - side-by-side - so you can ACTUALLY HEAR the difference between all of them. I'm using a 1995 stock Strat (neck pickup only) through a Bugera 333XL amp. Mostly, I'm playing one chord quickly so you can hear each speaker in quick succession. I improvise...

Here is a side-by-side comparison of a guitar speaker cabinet with four 10" speakers and a cabinet with four 12" speakers. Price, looks and materials didn't matter. I had the 12" speakers as extras. I later purchased the least expensive 10" speakers that I could find. I used 1/4" plywood fastened onto pre-fab bookcases. If you were to use 2 amplifier heads - one for each cab - you could then tw...

Step-by-step, I will show you how to build the cabinet from scratch through to wiring the speakers in series, using just a jigsaw and a drill.

This home-made (hand-made?) speaker cabinet is finally done! Here is a sound test, listening for rattles, saturation, response and overall tone. Here, we're using a 1993 ES-335 in to the low-gain input of a Bugera 333XL amplifier. The cabinet is loaded with two 75-watt Celestion G12T's (bottom row) and a pair of 25-watt Celestion G12M. The back to the bottom speakers are fully enclosed, the top...

I had 4 speakers that I wasn't using. Two of them were 75-watt Celestion G12T and the others were a pair of 25-watt Celestion G12M. After looking and searching for speaker cabinets, I decided to make my own. I found a quad bookcase that seemed easy enough to make into a 4x12 cab - and I had extra plywood to make the front and back. Once the bookcase was assembled, I cut the plywood to size and ...

Loaded pickguards like this are easy to install, but may need some additional attention. For those who like their guitar to be capable of producing many sounds, this concept is effective. Along with a kill switch, it has 3 humbuckers and each of them have a dedicated toggle switch so to split the corresponding pickup. A push/push pot is added to the lower tone pot to turn on and off the neck pi...

    Just thought you might want to know ... Your name should be "How Tos." Apostrophe s ('s) would be for possessives and contractions. Here, "Tos" is plural. Don't let all those ads and references to the 60's (sic) and 70's (sic) fool you. They're dead wrong. They should be written: the 60s and the 70s. Relative to your topic, here, I have a friend who once mounted a speaker to a piece of plywood (I believe it was 1/2") and used no speaker cabinet at all. It sounded surprisingly good. Less bass than a cabinet would have provided.

    I've done locking tuners on my Epi LP. When working on Bridge or pickup height with a PMS (pickup mounting system) you lose the set of strings. Can't get enough slack to remove the tailpiece. As for the roller bridge, I would not do will a hard tail guitar.

      Intonation is hurt by strings bunching up at the nut. That's a problem of the nut slot not being wide enough. Slot depth has nothing to do with it.

    If you put a "Quick Connect" in your guitar Jack location, and the other connector on your "loaded" Pickguard, you can swap all the electronics and Pickups in under 10 minutes, without any soldering. This makes one guitar as versatile as the number of loaded Pickguards you have. There's a short video on YT called "Tutorial: Quick-Swap Pickguards for Strats" that shows how simple it can be. I can swap a loaded pickguard on my Strat in about 8 minutes from loosening the strings, to tuning up with the Loaded Pickguard ready to go.

I just have to setup the bridge and get the neck relief correct and the nut slots and I'm ready to rock. It's a Mexican body with two EMG humbuckers 85b and 60 n, with a new Warmoth 10 to 16 inch radius quartersawn maple neck with maple fretboard and jumbo stainless frets. 6 screw vintage gotoh steel trem with steel block and staggered tuners that I think are gotoh.
