I might be keen on some of that. I'd want to see the pic first though.

Looks like vintage Mesa Boogie grill clothe, like from a Mk 1 or something. Way cool.

I've got a kitset 1x12 here if anyone's interested.

Also some bare wood assembled 1x12 and 2x12s.

And a kitset 4x8. Cool little cab.

Is that the stuff you used on the cabs you made for Capt. Black to go with his jansen?

Which one in the picture is the boogie stuff?

What size is the 1x12? What's it made of? How is it joined?
Oh...and how much? :D

Cap'n's cabs had real wicker on them. Simon's stuff is some sort of plastic. I've got it on my gear now and it's cool.

It's probably the middle one.

There's a furniture repairer in Devonport who can get the wicker. I think I've got his number.

Sorry about that mate, your right.

Anyway, it's great stuff. More robust than the wicker.

I finally found a guy at a demo yard had 18mm kauri ply (new) cost $60 for a sheet...score.
