Title: Does anyone know if Knievel makes cabs for sale?
Post by: Orrimarrko on July 16, 2008, 05:14:39 pm: I'm sure this has come up, and judging by the fact that there is no contact info on his incredible site, I'm guessing the answer is no.

However, I have to ask, naturally...

I doubt that very much. It wouldn't be hard to build cabs to a high standard if you have the right systems in place.

Post by: Level42 on July 17, 2008, 10:08:31 am: Yeah, and as far as I remember, he's a very quick builder too !

I definitely would have done that if I saw a way to contact him.

He doesn't have an email listed, and I don't see a way to pm anyone. (If there is, can someone point me in the right direction?)

Thanks,
Steve

Or just click this:

Edit: Great minds think alike (at the same time!) Cheffo :laugh:

I sent him a pm - not sure if he'll get it or respond, but figured that I'd have to try.

Thanks again,
Steve

Post by: mountain on July 17, 2008, 01:48:18 pm: He has built several CPs for forum users in the past. I don’t know how much he is into the hobby lately though; he hasn't been active for over two months.
Title: Re: Does anyone know if Knievel makes cabs for sale?
Post by: Orrimarrko on July 17, 2008, 04:46:18 pm: Yeah, I don't have the tools, skills or space to make a cab (or CP), so I'm hoping to procure his services...

I wonder if he would do an entire cabinet, ready to go (everything included).

Post by: shardian on July 17, 2008, 04:51:54 pm: He has sold a few converted MAME cabs. I don't think he goes out of his way to do it as a business though.
