Plywood prevents these issues because the grain of each ply or layer of plywood runs opposite to the ply to which it is adhered.\u00a0 Members of our design team have loaded vans after gigs and understand how equipment gets stacked and, occasionally (please don&#8217;t).. stood on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>*nominal dimensions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The &#8220;TSP <em>Solo&#8221; 1x Guitar Speaker Extension Cabinet Chassis<\/em> is compact and light, yet durable and versatile enough to allow swapping one 12&#8243; or 10&#8243; guitar speaker (with or without it&#8217;s baffle) until you find the right tone.\u00a0 At a nominal 16&#8243; width, many micro and mini guitar amp heads will set on it.\u00a0 It is the most compact and affordable cabinet built on the Tone Swapping Platform (TSP).<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;TSP&#8221; stands for our built-in &#8220;Tone Swap Platform&#8221; which facilitates swapping\/upgrading\/replacing baffles, backplates, guitar speakers (from the front or back), and even grill cloth.\u00a0 Tone hounds will prefer this freedom to experiment with, customize, create (DIY), purchase, or repair\/replace CNC-machined components in this cabinet platform:\u00a0 Rather than to having to replace the whole cab.<\/p>\n<p>Build and price a full blown &#8220;TSP <em>Solo&#8221;<\/em> <em>1x<\/em> Guitar Speaker Extension Cabinet using our <em>online cabinet builder<\/em> below.<br \/>\n<!-- removed until project launch.. 5\/8\/22 rjw\n, or upgrade to the wider <a href=\"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/product\/rack-star-2x10-1x12-10-guitar-speaker-cabinet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TSP Rack Star 2x10 1x12\/10 Cabinet<\/a>.\n--> &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/product\/solo1x-guitar-speaker-extention-cabinet-chassis\/\" class=\"more-link\"><span class=\"readmore\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">&#8220;TSP Solo&#8221; 1&#215;12\/10&#8243; Guitar Speaker Extension Cabinet Chassis for Micro\/Mini Amp Heads<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":378,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[39,35],"product_tag":[53,52,51,49,50,46,44,48,45,43,47,41],"class_list":["post-72","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-chassis-guitar-speaker-cabinet","product_cat-guitar-speaker-cabinet","product_tag-1x10","product_tag-1x12","product_tag-3-4-ply","product_tag-extension-cabinet","product_tag-guitar-speaker-extension-cabinet","product_tag-micro-amp-heads","product_tag-micro-guitar-amp-heads","product_tag-micro-head","product_tag-mini-amp-heads","product_tag-mini-guitar-amp-heads","product_tag-mini-head","product_tag-solo","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-composite"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/72","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/378"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=72"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=72"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guitarspeakercabinets.com\/tsp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=72"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
