yeah ....... the tighter the tolex work .... the more your hands ache too .... a close second to hand removing 1.2 million industrial staples from a 4 x 12 grill cloth
For me it was trying to hold the cloth tight while stapling. Sucked ass.
 
Would be cool to have a Ghidorah themed Tolex for a 3 channel amp. Call the amp Monster X.
 
Did you do that head also?
the Bogner ...... yes I've done a few things in the Western style tolex

I used the brown version of the western stuff for the back panel of my Gibson-Maestro. It didn't have a cab so I built one out of mahogany and ebony. I had an exotic woods place down the street from my FL house so I kind of went hog wild on it. It's the first guitar amp I ever saw or played through.
 
@griff10672 - were those Eddie-back speakers 20 or 25w? Asking for a banned friend.

Damn Waynzo, that right there is the best looking Blues Deluxe on the planet. You even got the chunkiest part of the tolex pattern laid directly across the top, nice played. You've been holding out on me big dawg, your tolex work is more extensive and even more beautiful than I had previously assumed.:cheers:

For real. I was in tolex heaven and then all of the sudden I see that Blues Deluxe. Holy crap!

Edit: PS, I had that same KISS poster. An old roommate stole it and all my other favorites.

a dentist gave me 550 for this ...... I had bought it off of GC for like 200 bucks ... the tolex was all screwed up .... this dude wanted brown western style with the natural looking leather corners ... and the grill screen isn't stock .. I forget what it was .... but it turned the highs into butter .... he loved it ... I think he played a Lone Star into it

Leather cab corners, who would've thought. Shoot, those look killer. You need to market to a few TX country bands, they'd eat that look up.
 
Heck yeah, go for broke bro!

This would be cool. "YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT I DID TO THIS CUSTOMER'S AMP" can be your first clickbait title, lol.

While I have a humble, small, and unfinished home, I have plenty of acres for you to park the van on. :cheers:

This new tolex changed my life!
 
That black gator is fire. Hit up tandy and do some gin-u-wine leather customs.... :love: :cheers: :love:
if I did tolexed pedals there wouldn't be any text on them ....

maybe I'll fuck around with the idea ...... would be cool for like a one knobber ...
 
What about a Marshall Black Flag with a nice master volume ?
