Smaller box head for my JTM45???

Post by tubetone74 » Sun Nov 14, 2010 1:12 pm

I build the Metro JTM45 April 2009 and it is about my favorite amp. This is saying a lot as I have a killer Dr Z Route 66, and Trinty amps HIWATT clone that I built too from a kit. Now what I would like to do is get a smaller head cab for the JTM45 so it will fit better with the speaker cabs I have. they are smaller than 4X12 half stack size. Anyone know of someone who already makes one that would match up to the Metro chassis?

Check with Sour Mash cabinets. I got their small head box for my Ceriatone plexi 50 which is 23" wide (regular marshall small box is 26" wide) which perfectly complements my 24" wide Marshall 1965a 4x10" cabinet.

My amp 's chassis is 17" wide, not counting the mounting flaps or whatever you call them. I'm sure the JTM45 is roughly about the same size.

Look at the 6M SHORTY head cab, about half-way down this page:

How wide is the Metro 45 chassis?
