What makes a good guitar cabinet?

The main parameters for good guitar cabinet would be: 1 - High Frequency response 2 - High power output 3 - Small size 4 - Low weight the ideal guitar speaker cabinet would cost $1, had a response of 1Hz to 50 kHz, weighed a pound, and could handle a zillion watts. but you need to make your considerations and decide on the parameters that important for you and choose the guitar cabinet that suitable for you. For example: if you want increased frequency response, the power output will decrease, and the cabinet will be larger.

Can you plug an acoustic-electric guitar into a bass amp?

Yes. While there are many different types of instrument chords meant for different instruments and even styles, all can be used to connect any instrument to any amplifier. The only exception is that a speaker cable (connecting an amp to a cabinet/speaker), will NEVER work to connect an instrument to an amplifier. Note that, in emergency situations, you can use any instrument cable as a substitute for a speaker cable. This substitution is mildly risky for your speaker, so try to avoid it. Also, NEVER use a bass guitar with a guitar amplifier. It can't handle the low frequencies of a bass guitar. You can use a guitar with a bass amplifier safely, but the tone will not be as good.


What do guitar preamps do?

A guitar preamp is basically a guitar amplifier, but without the power amplifier section that drives the speaker. A typical guitar amplifier consists of two components: the preamp and the power amp. The preamp is responsible for generating most of the characteristics of the guitar tone. The power amp receives the output signal from the preamp, then raises it's level enough to drive a speaker so the guitar becomes audible. Physically, a guitar preamp can be an independent rack-mountable unit, a digital device (such as a Line6 POD), a floor pedal, or even circuitry inside the guitar itself.

No, a cabinet is just a speaker (or collection of speakers). A speaker needs to be amplified to produce sound. The same is true with headphones; they won't work plugged directly into an electric guitar or bass.

Can you hook a pedal up to a cabinet with no amp head?

The cabinet is simply a box with a speaker in it. A speaker is a cone and a coil mounted to a frame. Neither the box, nor the speaker has any power source of its own. To create sound, a oscilating voltage must be passed to the speaker coil. Connecting a guitar or pedal directly to the speaker coil will provide an oscilating voltage but it is so tiny that you won't be able to hear anything. The head contains the amplifier. This takes the tiny oscilating voltage of the guitar or pedal and increases it enough to move the speaker cone and vibrate the air so that you can hear it.
