Changed the handle because the old one rattled and buzzed on low notes. My fat Doug Fir carved replacement is solid and makes nice bass notes. It has Esspresso Min Wax stain on it to match the box wood.

Thanks Farmer Ted, Lonman, Wes. I played her late in the night and had a nice time of it. On the middle setting it really swings. Clear strong tone. I did one more splotchy espresso stain coat on the handle. It looks fini.

Looks great Dave. The aged look of the cabinet and the handle are very nice.

It sounds good Uncle. Not as good as my Wes Carl amps. But Hey. I liked doing it. Now for a debut on Monday at Music.

I liked the look of the old handle, but we don't need the buzz and rattle.  Good job on the new one.  I think you are getting a handle on these things!
