Covering Guitar Amp Cabinets in Tweed or Tolex - Sizing, Cutting, Gluing, Applying, Cutting Corners
After spending a day building and finishing a few amp cabinets now the time has come to cover them in tolex or tweed. These are some moments along the way. Hopefully they will give you an idea how this is done. Feel free to comment below with questions.
Tolex/tweed application can be a bit of an art but if it is something you're considering doing it is also totally a learnable skill. I started my tolex journey by recovering several Suitcase Rhodes pianos about 15 years ago. A Rhodes has about every angle you could imagine to cut and apply tolex so it was a great primer.
Enjoy!
