Tone Tubby 1x12

Tone Tubby · cabinet

Tone Tubby builds speakers using hemp fiber cones instead of the standard paper cones found in most guitar speakers, a material choice the company markets under the Hempcone name and credits with a rock-solid low end paired with a silky, rolled-off high end and rich midrange. Carlos Santana runs a Tone Tubby 1x12 cabinet as a spare setup alongside a Mesa Boogie Mark I head, part of a broader pattern in his rig of pairing custom Dumble-built amplifiers with Tone Tubby Alnico hemp-cone speakers, and he's cited alongside Eric Clapton as one of the format's most recognizable users, drawn to the distinctive tonal character the hemp material produces compared to conventional paper cones.
