It's more compact that the original version...plus it has cutouts for jukebox controls right on the front (Optional).

I hope you are selling them under $300.

Otherwise good luck.

Agreed.

Some thought needs to go into the footprint also. Why does it have to be so deep, if a LCD is going to be in it?

Price is very competitive, and should be advertised especially for new builders on this site. :applaud:

Who are the International vendors for Mameroom?

The reason is, he is competing with dream authentics, if he isn't making their cabs allready. :)
