gauging interest: Sunn 200S 2x15 reproduction cab

[hachikid]

hey guys. I'm currently building a replica of the old Sunn 200S 2x15 folded horn bass cab like what John Entwistle used to use. I'm going to be personally using this cab as well as a replica of the offset Sunn 4x12 cab for gigging. a few people I've told have expressed interest in buying one, and I've been thinking about making them in small numbers. I'm just curious if there is a market for it, and if people will be interested.

I probably wouldn't sell it for much over cost, though. just wanting to get more experience and get the cabs out there.

??? When you reference a Sunn 2x15 FH, I would immediately think of the below:

^that cab is pretty crazy. I may be able to build that in the future, as well.

update: I've found Weber makes some speakers to replicate the sound of the JBL D140F that the Sunn 200S originally came with. they're called the Weber NeoMag 15 with the cloth surround, ribbed speaker, and the aluminum cone. they're currently out of stock, but I would be able to check into seeing if they would be able to make anymore.

just need the hardware, now. also, I'm going to be using DuraTex to put on the outside of it.
