H Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Didn't have to wait for the postman for this - I made it myself!
Steiner Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Nice work! I like the "H" in the corner. Does it enhance the acoustic properties?

kbp810 Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Looks like you did a great job of lining up the grill cloth as well; that took me a few tries to get right on my first couple of cabs so I'm a little jealous that you nailed it on your first take
H Posted May 5, 2011 Author Posted May 5, 2011 Looks good H, how does it sound? VERY quiet. There are no electronics attached to the speaker yet See my other thread regarding the build

I had a sample of the Oxblood grill cloth and that felt like fishing net by comparison. Hope that calms down your jealousy a little
DetroitBlues Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Looks great and the logo in the corner is a really nice professional looking touch...
H Posted May 5, 2011 Author Posted May 5, 2011 I need a name for this amp; not a pet name like Doris but a kind of brand/model name. I'd like to reflect its British and American ingredients (unfortunately, Mesa have taken the TransAtlantic moniker), perhaps with something like 'Tweed Gentleman'. Any ideas? I'm going to take it to a local high-end music shop when I've done the electronics and see if they think they could sell the occasional one or two.
FredZepp Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Man, that really looks great.. ! I do love these wood cabs....
NoNameBand Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 How about "Stud"? Ladies & Gentleman, I am proud to introduce to you, the new H Stud. There is a lot going on there. Think about it. It's got sort of a healthy ring to it.

NoNameBand Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Not a little ostentatious perhaps? I'm just say'in. Or Rocky, is that better? I had a Black, 1967 Corvette Roadster named "Sup Baby" also on the license plate.

NoNameBand Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Lol And the British aspect of that is? I have no idea. But, it is a nice cabinet job and as mentioned earlier, the H adds a nice touch. Maybe name it "Willie" or "Kat" just to keep things in the family. Nice wedding by the way. Very similar to mine actually (not).

Apologies to all if it is.
NoNameBand Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 How about the 'Essex Yank'? Is Yank derogatory? Apologies to all if it is. It could be if you are one. Apologies to the Yanks, the rest of us aren't offended.
H Posted May 6, 2011 Author Posted May 6, 2011 I've decided to call this amp 'The Limey' - what do you think?
JeffB Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 I've decided to call this amp 'The Limey' - what do you think? well....if your going for a slang term......and you want to impact on the Aussie market.......well....ya know
NoNameBand Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 I've decided to call this amp 'The Limey' - what do you think? I'm happy if your happy.
