Tolex for my new cab?

[azrael]

I'm building a 2x12 cab. I already have the speakers - a Weber Blue Dog and a Weber Silver Bell.
Yum!

Anyway, it's EarCandy cab dimensions, to give you an idea.
So...I was looking at these tolex options. I've provided an example for each.

So I thought those were a couple of cool looking options. Thoughts? Other suggestions?

Not sure what I'm gonna do with the grill either...Might just have a plain black cloth with a symbol painted on...

I just built these green ones;

(I'm finishing a 3rd one- out of 4)

I got the green vinyl at JoAnns Fabrics and the grill cloth was also green, and I just laid a flame stencil on it and spraypainted the rest black (and, yes, I grill clothed all the slant cabs too, but didn't build them)

If you can find that embossed vinyl, try to go with that. Or at least let us know how much it costs.

I'm really thinking about that tooled black tolex...It's really cool looking. At the place I found it at sells it for 15 bucks a yard, for a piece that's 54" wide.
