I just reached out to Jeff via his Reverb store because the website was down. I was thinking of finally pulling the trigger and having him make me a no-tolex, bare wood studio cab for my Maz 18. He informed me that he's shutting down J Designs at the end of 2020. He's not making anything new, but he is selling current stock. It's been a little while since I looked close at his store, but prices are great for what you're getting and seem to be a little lower than I remember.

I had noticed that his website was down, and that he had a couple things on Reverb only. That's too bad--for us, at least--he provided a great product and great service at a great price. JDesign cabs have been among the top of my list for a long time. I wish him well.

Check with Mather Cabinets. He made a head in blonde tolex for my Maz 8 1x12 combo. He has a lot of Z's cab measurements on file.

That’s a terrible shame for everyone who’s never owned one of his cabs. . I have 2 of his cabs now, and a 3rd in the past. A really great guy to deal with, who will ACTUALLY talk to you on the phone, (unlike a certain other arrogant, smug, prick cab maker) and makes GREAT cabs. his “add a baffle” are a great idea. I will have to try and contact him and wish him the best.

The things you do for your health.

Looks like he's sold out of his stuff on Reverb. Man, now I'm really kicking myself that I didn't jump on the JDesign 212 slant cab that was on CL last year for $325. That was what got me looking at him as a builder.

There have been a couple cabs listed on the J Designs Reverb store. I found a Maz that was already a studio so I thought I would reach out to the post for the 112 and see if I could get it with an oval back. It cost me a little more, but it looks like he is still making cabs on a limited basis. I have my 112 coming from J Designs, my Y cable coming from PNCS and I scored a Scumback off Craigslist at a great price as soon as I ordered my cab.
