Cant stay long have to get to work, started the cabinet on the Majestic 1250, the veneer was shot on the top, seemed like some oily stuff soaked in the veneer, could not sand it and it was peeling, I just went ahead and totally re veneered the whole cabinet. Also the bottom had to be removed and reglued and screwed back together. It,s coming along and found a speaker that is almost an exact match. This was a big job but is worth it being a very hard to find and rare set.
