Step 6: Selecting how to mount the speakers
On my build, I choose to reuse the original speaker grill as the mounting point for my speakers. You could also just as easily cut round holes in your box and mount the speakers to the box. Simply personal preference. Mine speaker grill was also covered with a fabric grill cloth which I first removed, but retained the Fender logo. It could also be removed if you want a cleaner look.
For my build, I placed the speaker grill in place on my box and traced around it. Then, I used a straight edge to draw a line 1/4" inside the outline of each of the 4 sides of the grill. Using a jig saw with a very fine plywood blade, a sawed out an opening on the internal (smaller) lines that I had drawn.
Using the correct size drill bits (or ones that are close enough for you to ream the holes bigger), drill the holes for the controls, the jack, and the LED.
