Traditional Empty Dual 12" Guitar Cabinet - Orange/Wheat
The Luke-2x12TR delivers the traditional 2x12" guitar cabinet look that guitarists have relied on for decades, built for players who want to load their own speakers into a professionally constructed enclosure. This empty cabinet gives you complete control over your tone while providing the solid foundation your chosen speakers need to perform.
Built from 1/2" birch plywood on all six sides, this cabinet offers the resonant qualities and durability that birch is known for in professional guitar rigs. The orange tolex covering with wheat cloth grille provides that classic vintage aesthetic, while dual 1/4" input jacks on the rear panel give you flexible connection options for series, parallel, or stereo wiring configurations.
The removable front grille pops off easily for front-loading speakers, while the removable back panel allows rear-loading if you prefer that approach. Metal flush corners and dual side handles provide roadworthy protection and easy transport at just 28.6 pounds. Pre-installed wiring gives you everything needed to connect your speakers of choice.
Perfect for guitarists building custom rigs, amp builders prototyping designs, or players upgrading from combo amps to separate head-and-cabinet setups. The 28.5" x 12.25" x 21.75" dimensions fit standard 2x12" speakers and work well in rehearsal spaces, recording studios, and club stages.
Dual 1/4" jacks connect to any guitar head with speaker cables. Cabinet ships empty and ready for your speaker installation. Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty with fast shipping nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What speakers fit in this 2x12" cabinet?
This cabinet accepts any standard 12" guitar speakers with mounting depths that fit within the internal dimensions. Popular choices include Celestion Vintage 30s, Jensen C12Ks, or Eminence speakers. The pre-installed wiring and dual 1/4" jacks accommodate 4, 8, or 16-ohm configurations depending on how you wire your chosen speakers in series or parallel.
Can I load speakers from the front or back of this cabinet?
Yes, the Luke-2x12TR accommodates both front-loading and rear-loading installation methods. The wheat cloth grille removes easily for front access, while the back panel is also removable for rear loading. This flexibility lets you use your preferred speaker mounting approach or work around different speaker designs.
What size venues work well with a 2x12" guitar cabinet?
A 2x12" cabinet typically handles rehearsal rooms, recording studios, and club venues up to 200-300 people depending on your speaker choice and amplifier head. It provides more low-end response and volume than a 1x12" while remaining more portable than a 4x12" stack, making it ideal for gigging guitarists who need professional tone without excessive stage volume.
What cables do I need to connect this to my guitar head?
You'll need a speaker cable (not instrument cable) to connect from your guitar amplifier head's speaker output to one of the cabinet's 1/4" input jacks. Speaker cables handle the higher power levels from amplifier outputs and typically use 1/4" or Speakon connectors. Standard guitar instrument cables should never be used for speaker connections.
How does this compare to buying a loaded 2x12" cabinet?
This empty cabinet gives you complete control over your tone by choosing your own speakers, but requires additional investment in speakers and installation time. A loaded cabinet offers immediate plug-and-play convenience but limits you to the manufacturer's speaker selection. If you have specific tonal goals or want to experiment with different speaker combinations, the empty cabinet provides maximum flexibility.
