Hello all, newbie here with a unique project. I found this cab and speaker on Craigslist for free!! I picked it up Sunday, and of course, found a bit more damage than seen in a previously provided pic. Hopefully nothing major, and I can fix it with some epoxy or glue. You can see where the veneer is pulling up on the left side of the first pic. All in all though, this thing is in sturdy shape. I don't mind a few dings or scratches, it adds to the history of this piece. After all, it is 70 years old!

I will replace the speaker cloth with some replacement cloth.

I am planning on turning this into an MP3 Jukebox complete with touch screen where the old controls were.

I really hope I am not offending anyone here, as I realize this may be sacrilege to do so, but I have always been a fan of older radios, and a hobby of mine is making old stuff new. So please, if this offends you, let me know, and I will remove this post. I have much respect for restorers and people way above my skill level, and I don't mean to rile up any trouble being a newbie.

I just figured this would be the best place to learn about these wonderful machines, and a place to try and at least restore this beauty to what it at least cosmetically once was.

Thank you
