The amp is white!

So– I began applying the vinyl in different ways to see what I liked best. There was some stitching from when in was on the car that I kinda liked and I put that right up top… you’ll see in a moment.

I followed the general idea from this site: http://jam4jmessageboard.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=2378719

Of course– my vinyl is a little thicker than black tolex– but not too big a problem. To attach the vinyl I used some spray-on adhesive that I got at the hardware store. 3M Super 77 Multipurpose adhesive. Good stuff– and it’s acetone based, just like the stuff they usually use at the factory.

Here’s a picture of the amp in the middle of the process:

And here’s a picture of it mostly finished (I put the speaker board in and held it– just so you can get a better idea):

Sorry for the blurry pictures– I was using my webcam on my laptop– I’ll be sure to get some better ones as I add things like the handle, and some straps I intend to create that’ll run up the back of the amp.
