onwardjames,
Here is additional motivation for you

I had another thread where I refinished a pair of JBLs. The cabs were in good shape, but there was water marks on the tops and the finish was shot... The pics were lost in a server melt down.
I just removed the drivers and sanded the cab down. You just dont need to use a power (belt) sander... One of thoes B&D sanding mouses will work, but you still need to make sure that you do not go too deep and get past the wood veneer... Hand sand ALL the old finish off and go from there... Looked like they just came out of the show room when I was finished..
Replacing the grill fabric is also a must... That goes quick and is not too hard...
