Head shell idea...

So I have this shell on the shelf that used to house my John H attenuator.

Here's an old pic from when I made this cab set.

It happens to be the right size for my JMP50 rebuild, but it's a little short, so I got out the head stretcher again...
Rummaged through the scrap pile and made some side extenders.
This will be the same height at the shell on the Ceriatone.
I'm thinking of stacking them for an either/or option with the cabs, or a stand-alone stereo rig.

Same wood as the rest of the cherry cabs, but I figured I'd never match the grain, or the stain.
Decided to just go with black stain.
It's all just sitting in place for now - still gotta glue it up and put some clear on the spacers.

With some black grill cloth on the logo plate, it'll look like a continuous black stripe.
I'm fresh outta Marshall logos, and it's not exactly a real Marshall, so maybe I'll make or buy something custom.
