Thanks, I'm really happy with the sound and it's starting to look more like a finished product now.

Thanks again. But I would like to thank Bill and the posters on this forum. I thought I would save myself some money and build a reasonable quality basscab. Then I found Bill's website and now I have a superb basscab and some extra tools in the shed Learned a lot as well.

Why not paint it like the floor - black and white squares at say 30 degrees

Nice cab. White is tough to get right. I like the jack/lpad treatment.

It's keeping it white that's gonna be tough...
Tried it out playing bass and I think I will never use the Lpad because I would really miss the highs. But yeah, it looks cool...

Tuff Cab paint has arrived! Started painting right away. Using a paintroller I get a fine structure. Looks real nice!

Dude that's a sweet-looking cab. I've had the same plans for two years or more and have never built it- raising kids and re-habing a historical house, and living on a shoe string makes the Count a dull boy! But I'm going to do it now asap. Been hefting heavy boxes and that's getting old. Your thread has re-inspired the notion!
If I may...
What head are you using with it?
How do you describe the sound? As in, 'peaky', or 'hi-fi', etc? Do you get speaker break-up, or any of that kind of thing at all?... or is it clean 'all the way up'?
