I realize there's a fair amount of bias against the company at this point, but you have to see through that when you're looking at their cabs on a quality basis.

Actually, I don't. It's not like you paid $500 for your "super-friends" themed cabinet. You paid for a well built cabinet. However, you also paid for the labor to put it together, and then 40% profit on top of that.
Seriously, let's see how happy you would be with your slishswick cabinet if you forked over ALLLLL that cash for it, and then gave you squat. THAT is the point of all this 'bias' in this thread. If you want to start a "gosh slishstink is the BEST cabinet maker on the planet" thread, go right ahead.

And try moving it around a bit. I've never seen one in person, but didn't they use particle board and outrigger cams? That crap can't stand up to any kind of moving around. They eventually rip out. I wouldn't call it solid if it can't be moved at all. Most REAL arcade machines can be moved around and beat on by delinquents all day and keep going...

I own a SS cab, and it is one of the most well put together cabs I've laid hands on. I don't recall the wood type and assembly method, but I can look if anyone's interested. When I wrote the book, we compared a variety of cabinets and the SS cab was hands down the most impressive.
