Looks cool! Good idea making a second cab. I also still have a Rage 158. I think it's in the garage right now. I got it when I was 10 and it's held up like a rock for 24 years, but it doesn't sound all that great. It just doesn't get hot enough. I liked that for practice though, because it really pushed me to be accurate.
Speaking of unexpectedly good tone: years ago, I had this computer-based thing called a Black Box that had a pretty decent sound for 2006. I did some bad recordings with it, but the guitar never sounded totally awful (unless I was trying to be "black metal" about it). I gave it away, unfortunately. Kind of miss it.
I don't really have pics to share, but I recently refretted a friend's project guitar (under his supervision and using his tools). It also involved a soldering iron
Now I kind of have the bug and I want to do some more such modding...
