New Marshall hardwood headshell from MC Custom Cabs

[Digital Jams]

Looks great Scott!

Now the knobs are fully protected from wobbliness, gig ready?

I am on my third set of knobs

That looks *very* nice Scott!

That is bad ass !

That's cool, except for the pinstripes I do like hardwood headshells. So umm, how much? Boogie charges upwards of $700-$900 for a hardwood headshell, depending on what options you get.

Maple/Wedge/Maple/Wedge/Maple...just like a Ibanez 5 piece neck

With first class shipping it came to $420 but after the sale of the old shell damage should land around $230-240.

I'm pretty sure the wood is Wenge not Wedge

I'm usually not a fan of those hardwood headshell's, but that one looks cool - maybe it's the racing stripes

Ibanez 5 piece necks.... So flat and wide you can land a plane on them.

Blends in nicely with the table.

Looks pretty cool though. I like the Plexi style headshell better myself.

I was posting at TGP so I dressed the shots up

I liked that Plexi one too and was going for that one and not sure what happened next

Thanks for the link! I have a rather odd-shaped head (input jack is on the SIDE) that I'd like to maybe get a custom-made headshell for.

Remember that thread I had asking what I was up too? This is the final product and I am very impressed with the outcome,

The main wood is native to Australia called Jarrah and the front panel is flame maple and wedge for the pinstripes, Brad who is the owner of MC Custom Cabinets layed out many options that I had and sent pictures of the wood that he had in stock. The Jarrah is a very hard wood so no worries about the structure as I can stand on this shell no problem. 100% dovetail joint construction and his miter work on them is great, very tight and exacting fit. Some of the pics show white in the grain, that is the flash of my 5+ year old digi camera as the finish is very consistant throughout the shell. Brad also included new mounting screws and washers to use, much better quality hardware.

One downfall maybe for some, the amp weighes as much as a Herbert if not more now so thank god for the comfy leather strap. I cannot say enough about Brad and his customer service, I have many 20 PMs with pictures of the progress and the shell was packed extremely well for the trip from Aussie land. BTW this shell I believe will fit a Plexi chassis as well if I remember right.

Very cool, glad it worked out and yeah, I can confirm that Brad is World Class when it comes to taking care of people

Here's another one he did in regular tolex:

Good looking stuff all the way around

Now THAT looks Good.

Damn Scott, after all the shit talking we do about cork sniffers you go and get yourself a hardwood headshell. What. In. The. Fuck.
