Another super deluxe Fred Taylor cabinet job! This little 5 tuber will be going back to the cabinet soon and will post a complete photo as well. Plays pretty well with long wire. A bit more to do on it. Funny Fred should have just made his GE post.

Neat little set! Had one back in the '70's then I was a teen.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Well it is June and it is finally complete, updated photos here......
It sounds super, one thing the felt piece over the speaker center is gone, should be replaced? Can I use felt sticker?

I don't think it is felt, or at least regular dense felt, it'll probably make it sound scratchy.
I think the purpose of it is the dust protection and many speakers do well without it.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I have used a pre adhesed felt dot for scratch protection over the center on some other speakers with no issues, maybe try again.
