I'm finishing up tooling and color matching for the upcoming ThroBak P-90. This photo shows vintage covers varied quite a bit in color. I decided to match the unfaded interior color of a 56' LP Goldtop cover. The ThroBak covers are Butyrate just like original 56' covers. A cool vintage detail to get right. They are going to be cool!

All the tooling is done and the baseplates are stamped. But I still need to order plastic and do the full run of bobbins and covers. I'm also having mounting screws made since nobody sells the right ones. All of that will probably take 2 months to come together. Every part is being made to my specs.. Absolutely no off the shelf parts are going into these. Just like the ThroBak MXV PAF the MXV P-90 is going to be a one of a kind offering made in USA to vintage specs..

:2cool Would you mind to unveil something about the sound qualities (e.g. early/mid/late 50s sound)? :rolleyes
