Ok, so finally pics of Analu, my rocket. Cabinet was made here locally in Atlanta by Mitch Zeitner who I think did a great job. In case somebody is interested in getting a wreck cab he got the specs and can be reached at mitchz205@comcast.net

Last pic is my 2 girls, Daniela (express) and Analu (rocket).

Redshark,

Very nice work! Whenever you get time, I'd be interested to hear a clip of your Rocket through that 1x12 with the Gold.

Thanks.

Thanks guys, yes, I'm very happy with those 2 girls, and yes I will make a video demo one day of the rocket with that 1x12 gold. Although I have other guitars my favorite one with the 2 wrecks is my LP junior with a single Lollar low wind bridge P-90 with 50's wiring. That gives me more control over the sound, gain and color. Here is a pic with that guitar and another pic of the side of the cabs, so you can see the construction details, express cab built by Jim Weyandt.
I have to say that the express and the 1x12 gold are not a great match. With the rocket it works fabulous but to me the express is meant to be played with a 4x12 with either G12M (25watts) or G12H-55 (30 watts).

A few gut shots, only thing I didn't like is the grounding buss, looks sloppy but that is because the grounding lugs attached to the pots were not long enough to have a straight wire soldered and make it look nicer.
