Turbosound tsw-124

that old thing i chucked together it was fine yes but it wasnt a build that i took pride in. so guess all i can do is show you guys the cabs when there built right proofs in the pudding and all that.

personally i dont think its hard to build very high quality cabs to the pro standard of the factorys good ply good tools good spray job finish good parts. and take your time.

thanks for the positive bits guys  im thinking six myself H.

hi biotec all the tsw-124's ive seen have no curves. pic below

and thanks 4d well atleast the word loveble is in there.

goliath ill be getting my ply from somwhere in the uk as all i can find in ireland is birch with poplar core and im not settling for that.

thats a very fair comment ginger and im so glad i took so long to make up my mind as ive found one that i much prefer over the rest.

this system will be on the way as soon as the original cab arives.

ill be getting the driver one at a time though as for the bloody cost

one thing im happy off is that ive mannaged to find an original tsw-124 to buy for the copying process.

Rus, I've only just picked up this thread again, so here's another couple interesting points( I hope). Firstly, I never worked for Turbosound. When the big push came in the '80's, we were, for the first few years, the sole builder. Turbosound have never made their own cabs. We built all the TMS range. You mentioned the curves. We were the inspiration for the curves that ended up in the cabs. I was already doing this in my own stuff, and was asked whether it could be done for the TMS range. Originally, they were all straight sided curves, if that makes sense. When testing was done, the only cab that seemed better without the curves was the TSW124. And that is why there are straight parts in the horn.
