Tolex job
Hey guys, what is the going rate for a tolex job?
I was at a local ampfest last Sunday and a couple of guys commented on how nice my cabs were done and one of them asked me to redo his Hiwatt head.
I do my own amps but never did someone else’s so I have no idea how much to charge! The guy is supposed to supply his own tolex...
Cheers and thanks!

I love tolexing and can do a great job. I hate stripping and prepping a box that already has tolex on it though!!
If it was stripped of prior tolex I'd charge for the cost of the tolex plus $35. If I had to strip and prep the box...$150.
...I'm like Deadwood; I've offered to help out friends and fix their amps WAY to many times where I ended up spending hours troubleshooting or undoing some F'd up mods or running in to unforseen roadblocks that caused me to end up doing charity work. No more...
