so for my first guitar cabinet grow, i used an early 80's sunn 1x15 monitor cabinet, empty and stripped. i used tinfoil on the walls of the inside of the cabinet and set up shop inside. the cabinet worked rather well at first, but i quickly realized that i wasn't putting enough light out for 5 plants, cut it to 3, then eventually to one major plant. i was using a 150 watt cfl with a reflector and just normal bagseed from my carpet of all places.
the plant ran it's course rather well and it began to quickly outgrow the box as i transplanted it into a bigger bucket.
since then i've taken to converting a 1967 sunn 2x15 into my flowering chamber, this number works rather well and will remain as my primary grow room until i can grab an assembled grow box this summer. it's got 2 75 watt equiv. grow lights on the sides and my trusty 150 cfl with reflector hovering over top.
one problem i did run into was that i had to be out for a day unexpected and my plant reached into the light and burned. me possibly being stupid decided to top the plant as best as i could to remove all of the burnt growth. there's still a bit of singe around some of the upper fan leaves, but it's not all that bad.
enjoy

plant eventually outgrew box and it did stretch into the light like i'd said:
time for the second box, this is my only pic of it, i'll take more when something changes!:
