Ahoy there all -

Just want to know if anyone knows ANYONE who could put a new Tuck and Roll covering on a speaker cabinet for me? I would love to rehab a cabinet - and wonder if there is anyone out there who can still do Tuck and Roll. (on a 1x12 cab)

Many thanks for ANY leads, Derek

Any furniture re-upholstery shop can handle it but its alot of stich work to make the rolls, and time = money!

Thanks for the answer Steve - My goal is to take a new Port City Wave 1x12OS and get it done ideally in a Cascade (or as close as possible) -

Just wondering if anyone has actually gone out and done it - damn the expense! The Wave projects incredibly for a single 12 cab - but would look so much cooler in Tuck and Roll. Wonder why no else thinks like that. (or maybe they do..........)

Any thoughts out there?

Derek

Derek, there is a guy who has a post on this site that does T&R. He's in Kansas if I remember right, and has posted somewhere on this site that he is still doing T&R.
There is a guy in Lowell Michigan that has recovered a 2x15 cabinet for my bass player.
Search this site, and you should find him.

Thanks Don! Please - if anyone knows who he is talking about specifically - let me know. I want my dream cab to become real. Searching the site is hard for me now as I am on a cruise ship gig (I do this ten months a year!) But will try on my next vacation if someone doesn't respond.

Thanks to all!

Derek

Here is the post for the tuck and roll guy.

Hey Pleat, Don My reasoning for looking for the past employee signature posters, was just to view them. I just wanted to share the entry of my signature,as well as others, maybe recognize some folk that I may have missed at the convention,with my spouse. Hey Don Mail me anytime at guitarslinger54@yahoo.com

Contact us if you have Kustom amp heads that are not as pretty as you would like them. I have the ability to take them back to mint condition.

THANKS GUYS! I will contact Dale and let everyone know how I fare - if it is even remotely reasonable I want to go for it -

Thanks again all who answer, Derek And thanks Chicago Bill!

If anyone knows the Kansas guy or other resources - please share and I will do the same. I really think some of the Boutique Cab makers should figure out a T&R option!

Greetings from somewhere in the Pacific Ocean.......... Derek
