Tolex or what? (cabinet project assistance!)

Okay, here's the dealio.

I might have a potential Ampeg SVT 810 cabinet coming my way, but it's all in pieces. I'd need to re-cover the wood on the thing; but I've never done it before and I'm at a loss for actions.

• What should I use to cover it up? Tolex, Duratex?
• Are there any tutorials on how to properly glue it / cover it / cut it?
• How much do I need (yards)?
• Where should I buy it from to get the best price?

Thanks in advanced!

Any cabxperts?

 

How does he get that carpet to be seamless on the top? I'm baffled.

 

Actually, wait. I get the wraparound thing, but how do they carpet the back of the cab seamlessly too?

 

Okay- this is what's confusing me. In the photo, it's like a mindfoop.

How do you wrap it around? Are there two individual pieces of carpet?
