I finally finished building one. None more black.... I haven't had much time to play through it, yet. From what I can tell, it sounds pretty flat; which is the idea. I'm planning on using it with my jazz band this coming semester.
I used half-blind rabbet joints throughout. I pinned them with dowels as well. There are no screws on any of the joinery; just PL-Premium. Putting it together felt like I was doing a huge jig-saw puzzle.
Hopefully, these pics will show:

I picked up the crossover kits from speakerhardware.com and put them together. There's virtually NO documentation, though.

What will you be driving this beauty with?
I picked up a GK MB500 a few months ago. It sounds great running through this cab. I'm anxious to use it in rehearsal!
I'm planning on building a few preamps to run through the effects loop on the GK. An Alembic F1-X clone is easy enough to pull off and should open up the tonal palette a bit.
