Has anyone ever removed the front panel on a Carvin Legacy?

I'm talking about the front panel that has the grill and the fake leather {censored} behind it. I got the bright idea that it would look cool to take that out and just put a grill in it's place and once I pulled everything out of the cabinet (including the reverb tank), I was disappointed to find that the wooden blocks that the panel attaches to are apparently glued in place. I beat on it for a while hoping it would loosen up but no dice.

 

Anyone else ever try this? Maybe I'm just retarded, but I didn't see any easy to way to remove the thing without a saw :facepalm:

I did something like this with my JSX, it was actually a huge pain in the ass and the amp head would probably not have any resale value since I had to take a saw to it but I plan on keeping it and I like how it looks like this better. It was all wood panels behind those chrome pieces.

That looks awesome. :thu:

I guess I was hoping I wouldn't have to use a saw but I really think I will. I've had the amp for 3 years now.....I dont think I'll be selling it.

The wood pieces were in grooves and had small nails holding them in so the only way to get them out was to saw them, i had to saw through some nails as well, it was a huge pain in the ass. I don't know what the Carvin looks like though inside. I also put a blue light on it instead of the standard red.
