Re: Building a Jansen 4/TWELVE SPECIAL copy (slowly)
Thanks, if you don't mind quoting the the brand of the white pen you used.... I am thinking of a template with the letters cutout and then spraying it white or using your technique. Still contemplating spraying something first on the letter template which comes off with some sort of solvent but without affecting the black paint.StrummersOfThunder wrote:Rustoleum Matt Black .

I'll take it you endorse my choice of colour?Conway wrote:Is it finished yet? Is it finished yet!
I need an small offcut of speaker cloth, preferably black/silver to use on the front panel. I am going to put a small speaker in the head so one can use it at quiet levels at night. Anyone in Aux who has some leftovers?
Also, where do I get that stuff they wrap around the cloth - plastic bit of round string stuffed around the baffle...

Which market?el byrdo wrote:I've always thought jansen should reissue some of the classic for the boutique market
I would call it "nostalgic market", very simple designs basically copied from Fender I suppose, nothing bhootheek I thought?
Anyway, I am doing it now - reissue number 1 is coming
