Amazing!

That's a sweet head cab, Barry. Nice work. I like the built-in W too.

Thanks, it’s become a signature thing since that head cab. I like doing that on my amps

Some gorgeous work guys! Really nice. Mahogany works very nicely but the grain direction can turn on a hairpin and leave you with tearouts when it's under the plane and the relatively course, open grains need some filler to get that glass-like finish. Maple is really nice to work though and with such close and dense grain, it can be sanded, primed and lacquered without any filling. And cedar as well... I'm so jealous, it's really difficult finding any good timber like this over here in central Europe.
