What Stingray is suggesting [and I'm seconding] is that you find a monitor you want to use and base your cab on THAT monitor. That's what I did with my bartop. I had a monitor I wanted to use, and sketched up a design based on that monitor. It's not difficult at all. To be fair, my cab is a bit simple and bland looking... there are MUCH better looking bartops out there, but it gets the job done. Get yourself a monitor, and you can whip something up really quick. |

Well, I found a place that sells new monitors ($179 for a new 19"). |

If modern monitors require isolation transformers, you can figure it will be 24" deep, more or less, and a good 3' tall, by the time you get everything in it. Bob |

I'd REALLY like to find a 13"... but haven't found anything yet. |
