Early 16B tombstone
#11

Taking a break from the chassis although it's working well. Still want to play w/band 5 a bit. The speaker is over w/ Rich @ Sound Remedy. In the interim have been doing a little cabinet work. The front burl trim has a couple of deep gouges. Slowly working on that. It a lot better than it was but still I think I can make it better. Glued down some loose veneer so on and so forth... Not there yet and I've seen it posted here on the Phorum but can't find it. I'm thinking that the toner for the dark sections of the cabinet should be extra dark walnut?

Oh on the grille cloth does it use the chevron style? Have seen a bunch of pics but most replacements so I'm not sure what an original looks like.
