So I have been build cabs for some time now and have a request for a Fender Princeton Reverb 1x12. Building the cab is not an issue. I have never had the need to do a Fender 4 piece wrap with Horizontal corner cuts, 45 degree cuts and used either metal or leather corners. The 45 Degree corners are easy.

This is what I am looking for a nice flat horizontal corner.

But the 4 piece wrap is killing me. I am just not happy with the corners. They are not as clean as I would like them to be. I have searched for tutorials and I have found some but all the tutorial that I have found never real show them or images of how they are making the cuts.

Everytime I am left with a issue on the actual round over part of the corner, there is excess tolex left over, like a wing that I cant seem to find a way to cleanly cut it so hee seams match up good and lay nice and flat.

Any help would be great

I do some recovering like that, never see a tutorial about that.
I was lucky to do a nice job each time.
I use water base Lepage glue or wood white glue ; you can make error and fix it.

Very nice cab, congrat.
