The red wood in front is Padauk.  The middle is curly maple.  The back is purple heart.  I didn't have enough of one type of wood to build this cabinet, so I used some left overs from which I built a couple guitars.

I've attached some pictures of the combo cab I built with the G-Major installed in the cab.  I'm not using the Classic Lead speaker now.  I have the EVM-12L installed.

Wow! That's some kinda cool.

Thanks.  I like the option of opening the back panel for easy access.  The connections need to be solid to avoid vibrations in the cabinet.


I just connected the Overtone with the G-Major in a stereo set up.  I used an SWR Baby Blue Bass Head (12ax7 preamp and solid state power section) into a 15" bass/PA speaker from Warehouse Guitar Speakers (www.warehousespeakers.com).  The SWR is very transparent and the sound, using a ping pong delay to compare, was very similar coming from the two speakers. 

I set the EQ flat on the slave amp (SWR) and set the volume on the slave amp to match the volume of the Overtone.  The Overtone then functions as the master amp, that is, the volume and tone knobs control both amps.   

A stereo set up like this adds a very pleasing spatial dimension to some already great sounds from the Overtone.   This will definitely be part of my set up.

If you have an extra amp and an optional stereo effect(s) in the loop, give this a try and let me know what you think.
