Not quite there, but the cab is solid red oak and will be stained black and have chrome corners and a herringbone charcoal grey tweed on the front panel trimmed in black stained red oak. This is my very first amp build and I built the cab too! I'm very pleased Grin

You should be, it looks stunning. Will Oak take a stain well? Before committing to Chrome corners try black ones to see how they look, chrome might detract from the beauty of the wood by being a bit bright and in your face.

Stunning is not what I was expecting...wow...thanks!!!! I put the first bit of stain on tonight and it's taking it well. I think I'll need 2-3 more coats before it is as dark as I want. Right now it looks very antique-ish. HMMMM, maybe... No, stick with the plan...go for as black as possible.
   Thought about antique brass corners and a tan tweed face, but, couldn't find a handle with brass hardware. So, I decided on black/chrome/grey tweed. I very excited to get it done.
    I've gigged with it in the unfinished cab and gotten rave reviews on the tone as well as the cab. As soon as I figure out my recording software I'll post some clips.
    Thanks again for the feedback, I'm very appreciative!   Bill
P.S. The pic was taken with my cell phone, so, the quality wasn't great.

Did you make it yourself? If so what type is the Tolex and where did you get it from? I've a 1x12 combo to cover and I'm undecided what colour to cover it in, I think yours has just persuaded me, cream is very nice indeed.

I'm pretty much tied to black with gold grille cloth now for heads and cabs but a combo can be completely different (until I need an extension cab that is!!)

Well, the staining and urethane are complete. Waiting for the corners and will put the tweed and trim on soon. Take a look, the oak took the stain very nicely.
The head is sitting on top of An Epiphone Galaxie 25 that is my back up and also serves as my speaker cab. Put a switching jack in the back and plug the OTS speaker out to it. It disconnects the Epiphone from the speaker, then, when I pull the cable out, the Epi is fully operational. Keeps me from having to haul two cabs around. Works out splendidly. Grin Wink

HERE'S BOBBY
I'm sending in my pics of my new unaltered ODS Special.  I had the cab built by JEff Swanson at swansoncabinet.com.  He did an excellent job per my request that the combo look similar to my 65 deluxe reverb.  I would highly recomend Swanson Cabs.  I would also highly recommend 2x10s.  I currently have a weber VST and a rajun cajun that I plan on replacing with a new tone tubby alnico 10.  Once I have installed the tubby I will send some sound clips.  While this amp may be heavier that a 1x12 the lowend benefit and the screming highs amke it well worth the workout.

Finally, completely, totally done! Yea!!! Grin Until I do the deep mod and change the FET input to a mini toggle and wire it for deep and put a bright cap on the master volume.    Cool

I'm thinking about installing the deep switch instead of FET input just like you.
I have a question for you. Did you install a resistor on the end of a dropping string to compensate for the missing FET board?
If not, what are your plate voltages, did they go up?
