Doggone it Larry. I guess I'm gonna have to get on the list of folks wanting a head box from you.

Your work is the bomb. Every piece I see is nicer than the last.

Hi guys,
Thanks for all the positive feedback.
As Bob knows it is very satisfying to take some rough lumber and turn it into something beautiful.
And you might have noticed I like Flame Maple.. :D
I can't take credit for building the amp, it was done by a forum member who builds incredible amps.. I am merely a wood guy..

One thing that I wanted was to post another picture of is the recessed handles in this cabinet..
I hate top mounted handles and the side ones work out extremely well.. they take a bit longer to do but the new owner really wanted them.
Thanks again for the great comments..

Looks amazing!

Hopefully later this year I plan to put together a pair of Express clones, and get you to make the cabs.

I still need to call you sometime and talk shop, just been really busy with other stuff...

So, I love the side handles on the head cabinet....and I may have to steal that idea from you on my next build.....or, how about you build the cabinet for my next build...? That cabinet is amazingly cool... :) :) :)

Okay, so, I really like the guitar tones in your clips on your Myspace page. A lot... More than I expexted to..... Those are "Trainwreck tones", yes? Or are those from other amps too...?
