Yeah, keep moving man, you've got it goin for ya.  Most of the guys here are much more technically oriented than say...woodworking oriented.  I know I made some really crappy stuff in wood shop at school, but my cab is coming around.  Most screw ups can be covered up or lessened with a little patience.

Just a little update on progress, i've got my control panel about 75% done, for an underlay i used a big piece of blue vinyl from a sign shop, 10 bucks for a 30x70 sheet of it, im going to do a nice artistic thing later, but this will suffice for a while.  need to order a few more black buttons to finish her off too.
