Damn fine build Bill! To say we have missed your builds on here is an understatement! Your attention to detail, build photos, and story lines are inspiring!

Sorry to hear you have been so busy, but so glad you took the time to share this build with us! Thanks. Hope this means we will be hearing from you more!

Wait a minute!

I just noticed in the pictures that your volume goes to 12!

Mine only goes to 10, I have been cheated!

Write your congressman and demand an investigation.

I find the Weber kits to be the most "vintage correct" when it comes to configuration and layout.

Thanks.

I don't really have a lot of time to spend on forums these days. Just wanted to post this build.

Nice build Bill! I am doing another 5E3 build and have just finished the cabinet. Doing a 2x12 Cabinet next and I want to build a 6G3 a little later.

Thanks. I can't nail two boards together without hurting myself, so I'll never build a cabinet from scratch.

Given your vast knowledge and not-inconsiderable skills, that statement strains credulity.

I had my reservations about building the cabinet. I decided to see if I could pull it off. Bought a new table saw and dado cutters and away I went. Made a couple of mistakes but I learned a lot at 68. My kids will have tools and amps and guitars to fight over! :lol: The cabinet turned out great!
