It really ties the room together.

I need a grab and go / plop down and play solution. Have been considering a combo, but I already have a lightweight 1x12 and a micro head.

Has anyone got a good idea how to semi-permanently attach the head to the cab? I wouldn't hesitate to put a screw or four into the cab if necessary. The head is not threaded for rack ears.

I need to be able to one-hand the cab by its handle, which means the amp would be hanging on the side of the cab.

Any suggestion welcome and appreciated.

You could have a local metal shop fabricate a bracket similar to the Genz Benz Invalid Link Removed combo's bracket. A lip at the back of each side o' the bracket would keep the head from sliding through.

You'd also need a removeable front stop to keep the head from sliding forward. What'll work depends on the design of your amp's face, but a small padded L-shaped bracket could attach to one or both side brackets to keep the head firmly in place.

Velcro is cheap and easy. There is industrial Velcro as well that would even hold a ten pound micro on the side of your cab. I use a small cab and micro and think attaching it is silly and unnecessary. But that's just me. You can also attach the cab to a small mini dolly that harbor freight sells for about $7 and attach the head to the top of the cab and roll it in.

Just put your little rig on this and roll in, roll out. Miagi..... Easy peasy. All you'll have to do plug and unplug power.

The one I use is about the same size but with a folding collapsible handle.
