Well I finally got it done and tested out. The power of a K250 in a package to fit nicely on a 2X12 cabinet. Even has that KOOL KUSTOM looks to boot!!! See it at the photo link below:

What do ya'll think. Will it pass for a vintage Kustom?

Great job! If you want, the original style jewel pilot lights are available here:

They have both the sockets and the jewels in a variety of colors - cheap, too!

I didn't know that, THANKS for the tip!!! Actually there isn't enough room between the input jacks for the full size light fixture. This is a photo copy of the K200B-1, but was reduced in size then adheared to the plexiglass. Standard controls (Pre amps) have a much bigger bolting pattern and that made the input jacks tighter together as well. I've got the power light with the jewel (Purple at that), but I just didn't have room for it. I was building this for a friend who wanted more power but the same Kustom sound quality. He kept on about gutting a perfectly good working plexi just to try this so I told him "lets do it from scratch and not harm any good working one". Don Diaz did the Tuck N Roll Cabinet and the metal chassis enclosure and I employed the electronics, plexi face plate and detailed the chassis rear panel. I'm going to try and find a round power light instead of the square one and I think that will look better.

Thanks, I just posted a picture of it sitting on top a 2X12 tuck n roll cabinet in the same link. Don just left with the head and was well pleased with its looks and performance. I know he will enjoy it.
