    Hey txstrat,
    Here are some more pics from the outside. My amp needs new tolex. If anybody can post pictures of the details of how the tolex joints are managed, that would be very helpful. Click image for larger version

      Thanks tubessence. Nice pics.
      Have you had a look on the net for applying tolex? There's some interesting info to find.
      When I apply tolex to a new cab I usually manage the first corner worst, getting better with every corner. Unfortunately I don't build enough cabs (about one or two a year) to get used to it and develop some skills.

        Mercury Magnetics has them, in both "original" and basic replacement types (if you speak to Patrick and tell him what you're doing)
        might be a little pricey to some...... good luck ....... BTW I think the old B-12 Portaflex had the most "Tone" (also the least volume)

        the modern approach might be to get a Bergantino cab (awesome and very light) and a tc.electronics head (pricey and feather light)
        you'd be as loud as anyone and sound good with a small sized super light weight rig. It's just money...........
