The next few pics show the cosmetic modifications that I did on my Panny Bottlehead. The internals were modified years ago by my good friend Matt Roberts. Matt swapped out the opamps, stiffening caps, and slightly increased the output voltage. Prior to him doing his thing I swapped out the stock vacuum tube for a cryo-treatedKuhl-Tube396A/2C51 Western ELectric NOS from1968.
First thing I did was source a non-working Panny from Japan and removed the faceplate. I then sent them to a gunsmith I know that does cerekote. He coated them satin black. I then went to the trophy shop and had new lettering engraved.

Next up was finishing the center console. This one here is the third that I built. I wanted to do something a little different so I incorporated a working humidor into the console. I lined the cavity with Spanish cedar and installed a hygrometer in the lid. I also mounted the Helix Director controller for the DSP.

I need to figure out why my pics are so damn HUGE here. I'm using Imgur and have loaded pics on other forums and they don't show up anywhere near the size they do on this forum. Any suggestions?

imgur used to provide these as part of their sharing options for easy copy/paste but at some point stopped, though the functionality still works. you can add an s, m, or l (small/medium/large) towards the end of the URL (just before the .jpg/.gif or whatever file type it may be) which provides a smaller image. i've found the 'l' to provide a good size for forum use. see below:
