Standalone Juke Project
june:
Ooooh, these are some good ideas... thanks.
I had just decided to settle on just painting the cab, and then, if I didn't like it, I could add the lights later. But after seeing these suggestions, I think it's time for a redesign. Hmmm... I'm off to convince the spouse. (I keep telling him that this is a MUCH cheaper addiction than booze or shoe shopping.....!) :P ;D
Thanks for all the great comments and suggestions. This really motivates me to come up with a better end result than I could have dreamed up on my own.

The mid range speaker are behind the felt material on the upper half of the "CAB" or Jukebox.
DeathDealer:
Dispite not looking so good, it has a clear and loud sound.

Hey DeathDealer, I like the design of your jukebox cabinet. It's clean, and the color and shape remind me of a professional musician's sound system. Thanks for posting the pics.
Mine should be painted over the weekend, so I plan to have more pictures after the 4th. And Zathras, I did leave it hooked up several hours last weekend to see if the buttons would get warm. The rectangular ones didn't, but the triangles sure did warm up. Maybe since they're smaller, they don't disperse the heat as well?? I may try to drill some teeny holes in the underside to see if venting them helps at all. I guess for the long run, LED lights may be better. I'm impatient to get it done now, though, so I'm just going to stick with the bulbs that came in them for now.

You could also try sound activated EL lighting.

There are a lot of places that sell it. This is just the first link I found. That project is looking fantastic! I would really love to build one as well.
