5e3 head or combo?

cubby01 · 07-13-2009, 06:45 PM

Have chassis built, now need a home for it. I've got the woodworking skills and equipment, I just need to decide which way to go. Traditional Deluxe combo unit or head unit with sep cab. Talk me into one or the other.

For what it's worth, I'll probably skip the tweed and go with a stained and oiled finish for the box(es).

As far as needs and use. I don't gig (just a three chord hack really) so it won't be going outside the home but it may occasionally move from room to room. I like the flexibility of the head unit but the combo seems like it would take up less room.

Thanks.

After reading some other threads on preferences it looks like I'm going combo route. Maybe a good time to get one of my kids some hands on table saw experience. hmmm. I'll be back to post pics when she's done.
