Yes, it's his old t-molding, thanks again mr president.  :spaceace:

Nope, i hope to check them this weekend. I noticed some connectors are missing and the wires are soldered directly to the chassis, so maybe it has been worked on before?

The side art from Phoenix Arcade arrived, and as always it looks very nice.

You are right, it took a bit of energy to convince by brother but in the end he's really happy with it. I think this cab is going to turn out really nice, it's a good thing he lives about 10 minutes from my place so i'll be able to play it whenever i want.  ;D

Today, we finally took a look at the monitor and measured the caps. Andre was so kind to lend us this little magical tool (if you need it this week just say so, i'll drop it off at your place).  



And my ipad with a Sanyo cab map also came in very handy.



Because there a lot's of connectors soldered directly to the chassis, we decided to take the easy road (as always) and just remove the chassis enough to be workable. I emailed the results to Andre, who's going to take a look and tell me which caps need replacement, thanks for that!  :D
