Re: What's on your work bench?

Unironically, Wayne Static had an immense guitar tone and that was all vs100 heads. Yeah man! Wayne had the tightest riffs too. The vs100 is almost identical or pretty close to the 8100 used by Chuck Schuldiner used in Death. Yeah I know, I just wanted to give Wayne some props after I was listening...

Re: What's on your work bench?

Wired up and plugged in for the very first time. I'm happy so here is a final happy picture. Fully enclosed and running a basic Celestion G12M-70, it pairs up with my Valvestate VS100 really well. I know that combo will crack people up but it's a 90's thrash/death metal thing I've been working on :D...

tolex and metal corners hide a multitude of sins. I'm always proud to not use corners for that reason ;) still make the odd fuck up though.

Well done! The trick is to always make two. The second one avoids all the mistakes in the first.

That's great advice! 2x12 next up.

Re: What's on your work bench?

Pretty much done.
Learned from so many mistakes with this. It looks pretty nice and clean over all but I know every little mess up that I made and it annoys me. Will finish the wire up and crank it. This is the first cab I've ever made. Cool experience.

Re: What's on your work bench?

This one is working but the finishing has stalled due to my big idea of creating an art deco type grill was resulting is rattles that would have been nuts at volume.

Have grabbed some grill cloth, will blacken those mounting bolts and hopefully finish it off soon.

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

I have a Suhr SSH+ Bridge / SSV neck combo on the way.

I've never used them but have read some great reviews, so looking forward to giving them a try.
