What order to do things?
#6

Thanks Kirk and PuhPow,

Another question about styling. When I look online at pictures of the 19B, the front portion of the cabinet around the speaker, the dial and the controls is darker, and the remaining portion of the cabinet is lighter. However, when I look at model 89 cabinets, they seem to be toned the opposite where the sides and trim are darker and the front is lighter. Is there a "correct" way to do this, or do people just implement the light/dark shading to suit their own tastes? These cabinets are very similar so I don't know why they would be done differently.

Personally, I like the '89 look where the front area around the dial and controls is lighter and sides are darker, but I don't want to ruin the appearance by doing it backwards.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Jon
