This is the jig I made, I still need to write "Don't forget to pre install the barrel and heat shrink dumbass!"

Dude is definitely trying to take the guitar face crown from John Mayer.

If my tube heads went away I would be perfectly happy with my Friedman IR-J preamp. They aren't going away just yet though. 😄

Good chance my band mate Dave wired it.

That didn't start until the early 90s when they switched from nitrocellulose lacquer to CAB urethane.

Agreed but...to be fair, last time the band I'm in played out I had two 4x12s blasting behind me and it was pretty glorious. 🤣

More often than not for band practice I'm using the IR-J because I don't want to haul anything. For shows though a full backline has "the look". 😄

I have four very good sounding tube heads BUT- if they all went away and all I had left was my IR-J and PS-2A I'd be perfectly happy, it doesn't look near as cool but..., 😂

"How to make a pretty speaker cab". I posted the same thread but with a different title last week. 😄

Yes handles up top. I did a quick check when the cab arrived before dropping it off for covering and thought it's sounded very good. Didn't give much thought and grabbed a G12T-75 and a ASW KTS60 that have (both 16ohm) and was pleased with that. Might stick with them but also have a Vintage 30 and an Emi Wizard (both 8ohm) kicking around I will try too.

Yeah I'm probably going to have to paint something to match it. 😄 I already have a watch.

Suhr SL-15 for now but the Ceriatone JCM-52 chassis will fit if I change my mind.

I recently ordered a couple custom cabs from TRM ( http://www.trmguitarcabs.com/index.html ) and promptly upon arrival dropped them off with a friend that is very good at applying tolex. Just got the completed pics and will be picking them up asap. I will be rehoming my Suhr SL-15 into the head cab. Speakers still TBD, vertical 2x12 btw. Will probably swap a few different ones in for evaluation. Wish I could play as fast as these look.
