    Anyone seen this?
    nosaj
    Mojotone has launched an official partnership with Fender for its collections of 50s and 60s vintage amp cabinets.
    soldering stuff that's broken, breaking stuff that works, Yeah!

    Prices have gone up already on what the cabinets they sell, so now it will go up even more. They are well made though, i have a few, some in odd colors and even have bought b stock/used cabinets from them on Reverb.

      So many years since Fender smartly abandoned those awful black paper eyelet boards and now they're going to be endorsing them again .?. I haven't experienced it myself but I've read a couple of accounts here where *ojotone black fiber boards have become conductive. And why wouldn't they? They're made the same way and from the same stuff as the vintage boards.

        Mojotone already had Fender amp kits and Fender looking cabs. So what's the news? They can stick a Fender name on them now for an upcharge? No thanks.

          Any competent audit of Mojotone's amp kits should raise an issue regarding the safety earthing method they promulgate
          ie use of a PT fastener to retain the earthing lug https://www.mojotone.com/Amp_Kits/Tw...amp_5F1_WD.pdf

            Also, if memory serves, they seem prone to duplicating the use of neutral for fuse or power switch, and death caps.

              As also observed in about 98% of the three wire power cord conversions in amps that cross my bench.
