I sold my mario to a friend last year and so I decided to build one. I didnt have a WB so I changed up a standard cab to look similiar as I already have an orange jr in the cade. The cabinet was laminated inside and out. A new base was built and a new speaker panel was made in order to move the speaker to the middle. I modded a popeye harness and hopefully will add Popeye to the cab when ever mark gets around to testing the switchers. I also completely changed the horizontal monitor angle to better approxiamte the WB and make it easier to view without leaning in and bumping heads. I still need some nice side art to finish this project and also a mario sheet for the back door if they are available.

That's a nice machine Duane. Laminate looks great and I like the center speaker grill. If I didn't have a wide body I would go this route. Can't wait to see your zoo keeper when you get it done also.
