I just bought a used 4x10 cab, a tecamp l410 (with the silver grill) and want to find a cover, a case, or protection of some kind.
the cab measures 25"w x 27.75h x 16"d.
the handles are 6.25"x6.25", they are 10.75" form the top and 6.25" from the back.
the control panel is 6.75"w x 7.25"h, it is 5.25" form the top and 9" from the sides
thank you

Tuki, Lecover, and Studio Slips will all make you one to your size specs.

Lecover has the template. Out of the three mentioned, they're my favorite.

studio slips has a quick quote chart and they say it'll be about $75 for non padded and $125 for padded.

Padded are fantastic for bump protection, something to think about though is (at least with my LeCover) the padded ones do not fold completely flat they hold the cab shape, and at a gig you may need to find an area to store it.
Just a warning if packing it flat to put in your gigbag was a thought you had.

I still will only do padded, personally.

It’s kind of redneck, but for years I’ve used duct tape covers. I've used old blankets draped over the cab, with an extra layer underneath for spacing because it tightens up while putting it on. Wrap the tape around the cab.

For the cabs in the pictures I bought some canvas and two rolls of tape, less that $20. You can tape it twice for extra padding.
It’s durable, repels rain, and takes about an hour. I’ve let my gear ride around in a trailer with these on. If it gets a tear, easy fix...duct tape!

Any cover can get wear and tear from such moving around. If I had an $80 slip and that happened, I’d patch it with duct tape, so I might as well build a cover that will match the patching. Every few years I see a little sign of some wear, so I patch it. None of my cabs have scratches. For my Fender amp I have extra padding because of the cloth mesh covered speakers.

I never had issues of it coming loose from the material.

It’s not for everyone, but it does work if your not embarrassed to use it.

I requested and waiting for quotes from tuki, custom amp covers, and lecover(the measurements they advertise for my model don't fit)
Thank you for the recommendations.

Studio Slips are high quality products from top notch people to do business with. The other folks have excellent reputations as well, but I can personally vouch for Studio Slips.
