I like how they're doing the burst stain on cabs now. Looks sweet. I bet that setup right there is gonna kill it.

Was that with or without the drivers? I forget whether it's Emperor or Monolith ship cab's empty?

I'd want a pass-thru jack for that price ;)

Man, fuck, 700 bones? There's no way to beat their prices. That's cheaper than a new Marshall, lol.

I'm just wondering what kind/brand of jacks they're using there. Looks like the insulated types with the metal ferrule (Cliff-type or something?). Like this: (http://www.neutrik.com/website/uploads/images/09/140x140/nmj4hc-s.jpg?v=1) Anyway, why I ask is that I bought a bunch of Neutriks and found that a bunch of them don't hold the plug in place very well. The plug can be pulled out with very little persuasion. I thought Neutrik would've been good, unless it was a bad batch. I wanted to use them on my speaker cab, I've put high impedance / low impedance inputs on there, but they seem a little dubious. Of course I found this out after I soldered it all up and was testing it.
Sorry to go off topic, that is a really nice cabinet you got there, Mr Dunwich.

1.5-2 months because I asked for non-stocked Weber speakers, they normally stock the 65s but not the Fane clones

Killer! I really want one, the price of getting one to Sweden though is more than $1000 (I've checked) so I'm afraid it's never going to happen. I'll just stay here in my permafrost being totally jealous.

Seeing as Baltic birch ply is the best thing to use for cabs, and you're pretty near the Baltics compared to us, maybe it would be better to have it built locally. I'm sure Sweden has it's fair share of craftsmen. Fane and Celestion are also much nearer you.

<joke>Surely you know someone at IKEA that can do this on the side for you</joke>

There are perks to living in Europe like the used Matamp market.

Sure I can get an Emperor cab but I'm going to miss Boltfest...

Damn, some pretty cool options there. I think when I have money for a new cab this is the place.
