Thanks! I'll improvise some rails, yes.
I was thinking more along the lines of some nice pinup art... I may paint it a color when the weather warms up

I had a fiberglass Hobie skateboard with clay wheels when I was a kid. Fun to see that pic!
Yes I wear earplugs. It sounds every bit as good as it looks.
Man, as much as I love a big stack, I couldn't afford the semi-trailer and 3 roadies, required to haul that much gear.
How do you reach the knobs? Or do you just turn it up full before popping the heads it on top!
You’d love our sound man. He freak’n slams the bass through FOH. Drowns my amp out.I’m 6’5” tall so I can reach them.

Adding some new "honorable mentions" to this thread. Hey! It's MY thread-- I can necromance it if I want to!
Anyway, some cool new 4x10's that have been on my radar for a while that I think deserve a bit of the spotlight:
1) The Epifani DIST-3 4x10. I like the sporty yellow accent, and the ports between the rows of drivers remind me of 1990's Trace Elliot 4x10's. The selectable impedance is cool, too!
2) Speaking of Trace Elliot... I'm liking what Peavey came up with for the new Trace Elliot 4x10! Casters on the back, offset rubber feet that let you stack the cabs in almost any orientation-- looks pretty well thought-out, and gives a little more than just a nod to the old pre-Gibson Trace Elliot cabs!
3) Finally, I'm not sure how I missed this one the first time around, but, somehow, I did! When I think "American 4x10", there are 3 that come to mind-- Hartke's 410XL, SWR's Goliath, and Eden's 410 XST. With SWR gone, and not hearing much coming out of Eden lately, it seemed appropriate to list David's latest 4x10 creation-- the DNS 410, by David Nordschow Amplification! Rat fur covering, big flared shelf port, and almost as tall as some manufacturers' 6x10's! I also think the L-pad dial on the front of the cab is a pretty neat idea, too!

Old rig of mine. A while back I got my hands on a black OBC210 Mini, but during the time before buying it I sold the 115. Looking to put this back together in the future. Loved everything about it, musically and aesthetically.

Winnowed down to budget, but it doesn't sound it.
That is one of my favorite bass heads of all time. I wish I still had mine.
I hear a lot of that.
I got it in disrepair after having it recommeded to me by the guy I ended up bringing it to, to get it re-hab'd. Since getting it dialed in it reminds me a little of the Acoustic 370 I used to have- it's got more EQ options and the channel gaining that the 370 doesn't (Automix), but the delivery is a good deal like it.
I'm content with it so far- which is a big deal! I just need a gig now to bring it to! That's coming...
These can be found for pretty cheap, you know. I don't expect that to last though, like everything...
