WTB: Emtpy Head for Mark 1

[scarface73]

Greetings,

I have a 90's re-issue Mark 1 that I want to convert to a head. Looking for an used one or any advice on folks that build them.

thanks!

Mesa can make one for you. Sour Mash Cabs can make one for you. It's only a medium skill leve woodworking project, and any decent woodworker
who has a router and a dovetail fixture can knock one out for you pretty quickly. (Dovetails for a hardwood cabinet, I recommend finger jointed for a ply cabinet.)

There are some Mesa groups on Fakebook and there are people who hang out there who make their own cabinets and will sometimes make them for other people.

I've made them myself but am not looking to pick up any work at this time. I have too many projects already breathing down my neck.

rawcabs will make a pine head for $150 and a dovetail cherry for $250.

Good info, thanks!

You can contact Mesa Hollywood for the order. I just received a Mark III and IV replacement head shells from them.

Are the mounting holes spaced the same on the re-issues as the Mark series from the Late IIB's and after - or the same as the original MkI.
If the same as the original make sure whoever makes it knows or it won't work for you MKI re-issue chassis.
