Just posting this to showcase my new build. Electronics are stock crack+ speedball. I used oak from a locally cut tree and planed it to thickness. I opted not to use the kit-included alder because I needed to use an open grained wood for effect. I painted the top panel burgundy enamel and sprayed a catalyzed automotive clear coat followed by wet sanding, cutting, and buffing for a high gloss luster. I'm happy with how it looks but ecstatic about how it sounds. This little beast totally transformed my 650's.
