Smoke, I always love seeing your builds. Your CBGs are some of the best in the world!

Thx Tom & Penny, Penny I don't take pics of the inside and it is screwed shut and ready to ship out. The cones is 1 1/4" copper pipe with end caps and they extend down to the bottom of the box with holes drilled in the sides of the pipe as to allow the vibration to resonate out into the inside of the box.

Thx dave, Ju Ju and james. Ju Ju, it sounds the same unplugged. I didn't use any type of effects and I set my Bass,mids and treble to the 3/4 mark. It's not as loud unplugged as that tricone you built. Man that's a sweet ride!

Comment by James on January 20, 2012 at 1:20am

great ideas, great innovation, awesome sound!!!

Comment by JUJU on January 20, 2012 at 12:00am
