Hiwatt Starfinder Cabinet (WEM replica)

Post by Voddi78 »

I'm not sure if anyone know about this, but Hiwatt UK is building the WEM Starfinder 4x12's. I've seen this cabinet listed a few times on eBay by the same seller.

Here's more info on this cab.

What struck me on the description was the "rock solid construction of 25mm chipboard". I heard the originals were made of plywood instead of chipboard. Or were they made of birch? Maybe Hi-Tone could replicate this cab.

That's an oxymoron if I've ever read one.

Hi-Tones do make the best cabs. Hands down. :D

Unfortunately, someone on eBay bought the Starfinder replica (if you want to call it one) back in mid November. For the price of the Starfinder, that person could've bought 2 Hi-Tone DR-F 4x12 cabs instead.
