I want to build it out of solid Walnut planks. I know they're more expensive than plies, and more likely to crack, but the better sound quality is worth it to me. My only question is, how thick should the planks be? I'm thinking 22" tall by 16" wide and 16" deep. I figure the sides and bottom should be about 1/2" to support my weight, but the front and back should obviously be thinner. 1/8" was my thought for the front and back, but I'm asking for your thoughts.
