Thanks for the comments. The cabinet did turn out very nicely.

Here is a link to some more shots of the cabinet..

Awesome cab! I didn't know anyone actually finished the insides! What finish did you use?

Distortion, That is nice stuff! I have the Jones to go back to the woodshop now! Maybe I'll make one of those "V" hardwood cabs for my Clone.

Guys, thanks for the kind remarks.
The front of all my Komet cabs have Cocobolo laminated between the maple and bubinga or whatever other woods I have used. This is my spin on wood piping.
The finish used on this cabinet was Deft lacquer. It looks great and is pretty inexpensive. When the box was completed I let it set for about two weeks and then buffed it into a glass like apperance.
I love my buffer.. :D

Great looking stuff. Mouth watering. Handles are cheap, I'm gonna gradle this one. After looking at this stuff, and looking at the stuff I have scrounged up. I'm gonna have to name her Tramp after my ex-wife. Maybe a leather handle will be O.K. after all.
