Ok,

first good news :)
Got an answer from dmrogers at TalkBass forum:) No photos, but still it's the first answer with dimmensions. :D So I share, here they are:

"All measurements are in inches.

A =40
B =30
C =17
D =1.5
E =11
F =4
G =7.5
H =2.5
I =2
J =17.5
K =6

These measurements are very close, but some might be off by a few 1/16 or so."

Cheers,
Tho

as luck would have it, i was taking apart my own bassman 100 cab to sell the speakers. the measurements on my own cab were very close to the ones listed, but i had some discrepancies. the center strip on my cab was closer to 11.5" than 11". also, the total length of the edge running from the center to the corner was closer to 23" than 23.5" on my cab. other than that, all the measurements look right.

i posted some pictures with measurements on them over at TDPRI since i'm not much of a fender forum user. check them out here:

Thanks Joe, much obliged.

A Hyundai station wagon, eh?

Perhaps it would be the inspiration for all those low riders which would follow later on......

Can't belive that it is happening! Can't wait to start the building!
Thank you very much!

So now it's my move.
As soon as I'll start I'll post the photos of the progress.

Regards,
Tho

Hi guys and girl :)

I've made a project of the interior.
It was made based on the info from few persons.

With a help from my father we are at the end of the process...

The most important was the angle of the wings which we counted and it appeared to be 52 degrees.

Some of you were right - the cab itself is too big.
I found a Fender V.T. 215 cab for like 60$ in Poland.
It's little smaller - shallower...

We had to change some dimmensions to fit the interior to the cab.
Tomorrow I'll post some real pics :)

Still waiting for the speakers to come. And when I'll get them I'll record some sounds.
Stay in touch,

Tho

What speakers are those?

They look like full-range drivers from a hi-fi cabinet.

Yeah those speakers have whizzer cones! Maybe he's using it for guitar instead of bass? Acoustic guitar maybe? 30 watt speakers? I'll shut up.

Indeed - they're somewhere around 82' polish made "Tonsil" under the Pioneer licence wide range (75Hz-4kHz) hahaha.

I don't have the money for celestion's/eminence's/jbl's :-/

Yea, I use them with guitar (not acoustic - look at my bottom description).

Later I'll post some sound samples on soundcloud.com but first I have to drag it to my friend's studio... Right now it's in my room and making angry my neighbours behind the wall ;-)

Cheers,
Tho
