Build Your Own Clone Message Board

I'm about to order a 1 x 12 18 watt cab and I'm struggling a bit with the color choice. I'm a vintage nut, so I'm leaning towards black/pinstripe like this:

But I also like other ones, like:
Purple/Check

Red/Check

Orange/Salt n Pepa

Maybe Green & Pepa


Whatcha guys think? Comments/ideas?

Vote Cast, Vintage Black all the way!

That green/salt + pepper kicks ass. Ok it looks a lot like a Matchless, but it still kicks ass. Second is the orange (looks like an Orange amp always, even without the tan basketweave grillcloth), then the vintage proper.

Vintage black gets my vote, every time. Bold colors are awesome for a week, then they are glaring at you. No colors anymore - I want them to turn black.

I'm not a vintage nut and I'm diggin' the green. I don't like the other non black colors. If not green, black all the way.

I have a dsl in black with checkerboard cloth that I think looks great. 2nd place is black/pin

I voted for black, but as a fellow vintage fan, I'm also really partial to Burgundy tolex and either cane or oxblood grillcloth.

I think goda's hooked me with this statement...now, shall I relic it to look like an original?

I'm surprised that Red/check is in last place. It was kind of my second choice...

Red-pinstripe is pretty swanky too.

I think if I were building the tremolo version instead of TMB, the rules say I'd have to go purple right?

As soon as I take my rightful role in replacing Pete, I'm totally doing this one:

I voted for red check, but I'd go red S/P or pinstripe any day over the checks.

I'm with TD and 'Hawk in diggin' that green cab....

Ha. Yes.

I'd go Blue with white piping and a check grill. Or Cream with gold piping.

Red check, all the way!

Personally I love tweed.
