Holy crappity crap, Hackman!

Re: Holy crappity crap, Hackman!

Wow, that's pretty rough.

I'm trying to understand the stuff he's got hacked into that weird spray painted front baffle.. Looks like an old Korg tuner from the '80s, a couple of fans, and... some kind of door? It looks like it might be the OT but I really can't tell.

At least the price is right.

It could almost be cool, if you're into steam punk.

I can't believe he even made a space to attach a Holy Grail Reverb. That's insane.
 
Re: Holy crappity crap, Hackman!

I love it. I would have arranged it so that the tubes were on the bottom (so the heat rises away from the electrical components). I also would have split the fans - one pushing towards the tubes, one pulling out the back of the amp . . . but the built in tuner and reverb pedal slots are awesome.

Heh, even I wouldn't rock that cab, but if it holds the price down like I think it will someone is gonna get a steal.

IIRC all MK IV heads (and maybe even the combos too, too lazy to check) had this feature.

All MKIV short heads and combos had it. For some odd reason the long heads didnt you just stashed the foot controller in the bottom of the head shell.

But at that price I'm seriously thinking of snatching it. My MKIV has some battle scars right now and I could cannibalize this one to fix it up cheap.

I wouldn't think too much about the current price since there's 6+ days left on the auction.

All that's missing is an airtight canister to contain farts.
 
Re: Holy crappity crap, Hackman!

Guys… it's custom. Because everyone knows that off-the-shelf simply isn't good enough.

A Mesa in a pretty box isn't going to sound any better than the same amp in an ugly box. For somebody handy with tools it could still turn out a nice deal, provided the amp's guts are fine and the new owner fancies mesa voicing.

As long as we can wire it up in parallel so we can blend the farts with clean air. That way we don't end up with a fart that's too wet, you know?

Disagree - It ain't done until its overdone... :18:
