Love the theme and design.  This is going to be an awesome cab!
Epyx:
Thanks guys. I like the theme and design as well. Its a heck of a lot of fun taking a concept from paper to render and then trying to build it.  The one thing I really appreciate on this project is "taking my time" though...first cab was all about "I want to play NOW" and I took a lot of shortcuts...I look at the cabinet now and all I see are mistakes upon mistakes.  For example, its 33 1/2" wide...no t-molding, no smoothed angles, lousy CP mounting, lousy bezel, lousy art, lousy woodworking...ok ill stop now ;)  Cab 2 was better but this one will be something im proud of.


Im the type of person if I notice a dead pixel on an lcd tv etc I won't stop staring at it...Ill watch the whole movie focused on that one damn pixel.  I encourage anyone with a monstrosity of a 1st cab like mine to have a go at that 2nd cab and maybe surprise yourself ;)

Im not saying I won't make mistakes but taking your time and not feeling personal pressure sure helps in doing things better. Now when im jonesing to play I just play on one of the first 2 cabs, knowing it will be worth it when this one is done right.

Also, I don't encourage smashing a cabinet to oblivion...but when it is one you build yourself...go crazy. In fact I will post pictures of me taking the sledghammer to cab 1 when this new one is operational!
