Nice! Couple of word of advice:
--Make sure the tube glass will have enough clearance by the transformers. You may want to move the transformers back a little.
--You've got all the weight on one side. It make it unbalanced to lift. Sometimes I compensate with a weight on the opposite side of the cab.
--Preamps may be a tad closer to the edge than you imagine. Dry fit the board before you drill the holes. Draw the holes on the inside. It can be a bit of a dance to fit the board and the tube holes.

Thanks for the advice. I want to keep the power supply as far away from the input as possible. Pretty much all amp chassis are "end heavy". Once it's in its cab with a speaker it won't be as noticeable.

Of course i have. However, most of them are of hammond disasters, or other people's clones. I was hoping for some bona fide pictures of a for sure CG. Close ups of the different areas.
Ok. Thanks, Zippy. Anybody else? I'm not saying there are no gut shots on there. One more time, I'm asking for some good, close up shots. Anyboy willing can pm me.
