Cool amp modifications

Sign in to disble this ad
Have any of you guys done any cool mods to your amp or cabs to make them look awesome? At the bottom is a pic of my practice amp that I spiced up to make it look abstract.

I took the cover of that protects the speaker (sorry I don't know the real term for it) and took a piece of cloth that I tye dyed and stretched it tight over the cover and put it back on. What do you guys think about it? I like it quite a bit..please post some pics of your modified amps and cabs

I went to some head shops to look for wall hangings so I could do this, but all they had was the standard bob marley and pot leaf ones. Not sure where else to find neat ones, maybe online?

It's called the Grille, even if it's cloth, I think. Grille cloth.

That was a good idea, though. I was thinking of going to a fabric store or using a thin bed sheet from a thrift store
