Two crafts, one cabinet
Woodworking and embroidery, done under one roof. The wood carries the sound; the stitching makes it yours.
Real hardwood, real joinery
Maple, cherry, white oak and walnut, chosen for grain and resonance, then joined with miter or finger joints. No particle board, no staples, no paint hiding the wood.
Embroidered grill cloth
Each design is drawn, traced onto the cloth and stitched by hand before it’s stretched across the baffle. It’s the signature on every WestBound cabinet.
