Cab rattle!

What do you do? I have bassman piggy back style amp, and the cab is a veritable rattle factory! Can I just tighten evry screw i find, or is there trickier ways?

I've had cabs that I tore up foam and put it between every possible area that could buzz or rattle. Pretty much every panel that had screws in it, I put a thin piece of foam between. I can't remember where I got the foam from, but it was really thin. I would think weather stripping foam from the hardware store would work, since they come in all different sizes.

It's usually the speaker baffle that has "loosened"
but in some ocassions, they hardware can rattle like hell. I once spend about 3 days trying to find out what caused the rattle in a BF Bassman cab, till I found that it was the speaker wire....
Also a too tightended baffle board can cause rattle as well. (as I learned the hard way
And the "foam" tip is very helpfull as well....as a rattling cab can be very anoying....
