Nyquist5	Re: Converting Guitar Cab... Justin, Your main problem are the speakers. To cut a long story short, guitar speakers are very different from bass (or PA) speakers. They won't like the bass end you produce and will probably die on you if you play at gig levels. So if you really want to use that 1922, you need to buy proper bass (or PA) speakers. Provided that the 1922 has a fairly small internal volume, it probably won't sound all that good. You're probably better off finding a second hand 4 by 10 or 2 by 10.
