hi doug,
question about the new stooge panels...are they
aluminum like FPE's? it sounds like you will be
texturing them for a motm-style appearance (NOT like
FPE). i know how easy it is to scratch the black from
FPE panels...but im not sure if thats the fault of the
aluminum or the FPE color coat (paint or whatever that
it they use). what will be similar or different
between FPE and the new stooge panels (or for that
matter, between the old and the new). were larry's
panels made from the same material as pauls? they
both seem to be relatively heavy.
thanks,
hans
