Here's a pic of the amp in my '70 Marshall head case. This was at last Sat's gig, hense the Bad Cat used by the opening band in front of my rig.

Those cases do look great! Looks just like one that Marshall puts out. When i get one i'm gonna leave it nameless on the front, so people can marvel in mystery?????!!! :shock:

WOW!!!
That head looks really nice!

I've been drooling over the DIY kits page since I first stumbled onto this great site a few days ago.
(I've since e-mailed the link to at least a half dozen of my buddies.)

Let's fess up, now.....

As great as that head looks, there are PLENTY of guys (idiots?) out there that will not comment on the
sound of an amp with no name on it, NO MATTER HOW GREAT IT MAY SOUND..!!!

But throw a Marshall nameplate onto that same amp at the next gig and you'l no doubt hear "Dude! That Marshall ROCKS!!"

The fools..!!!
Thanks!

Yeah, I get lots of comments on my "Marshalls". Once in a while someone will ask "what year is your plexi?".
Last Sat a guy came up on the side of the stage and stuck his head in front of my cabinet. Then he looked up and yelled "those old Marshalls sound great!".

I guess I will have to get some logos made up. I've always wanted to have Metropoulos written out in the Marshall script. We'll see.

Don't write Marshall!!! No way. For jacking their amps up 500 smakaroos they don't deserve the name. Just name your head "Amy Fisher".
