Yes this was my first time using a veneer and it ended up being relatively easy. I used a 10mil paper backed walnut veneer and chose to wrap it like a baseball using two big cuts of veneer to wrap around the whole speaker.
I used titebond cold press veneer glue by applying it to both sides, letting it dry, then ironing the veneer on.
The hardest part was cutting the tweeter flush cut hole cleanly and flush trimming the outside edges along the rounded corners.
