TARDIS stack

[scottfeldstein]

For months now I've had this vision of turning my cab stack into a TARDIS.

Right now I'm building a two cab GK Neo 212-II stack. (I only have one at the moment.) People do tend to paint the silver grills of these new GK cabs. But I'd have to paint mine navy blue and get pretty artistic in the suggestion of panels and windows.

What seems more likely is to get some speaker grille cloth in navy blue and paint that. Then I could make an "amp cozy" to put over the whole stack like a big blue sock. I could put the amp head on top (small MB500) and a blue light.

The easy part would be the blue light on top. Such things are easily available for DJs on Amazon.com and other sources.

Thoughts?

That's going to be a terrific resource, thanks!

No suggestions, but I approve of this.

Two thumbs up! Can't wait to see the finished project...

Like the Dr. Who TARDIS?? Saweet!!!

Do this and become King of the Nerds.

Do this and just know the next step is a Dalek bass. It won't end.

Then you'll be all old-school and glue jelly bellies to your strap....it'll be anarchy.

On a related side note, I once referred to my junk as a Dalek, and proclaimed "exsperminate" as I chased my then would-be Wife around the room...is that wrong?

Yeah!!!! TARDIS FTW!!!!!

Jelly Babies!!!

Wibbly wobbly timey-wimey rig! Lol

Did you know that the Tardis turns out to be a chick that 'stole' the doctor, all them years ago?

Great idea by the way. Better than washing machines...

This is a great idea! Can't wait to see it when you get it completed. Should be awesome.

Ok, you guys, look. There's no project. I'm not committed to actually doing this.

But I'd like to. Once I get the second cab, I'll get in touch with some custom cover shops and see who's willing to work with me on it and who's got the brightest ideas.

Think I'd get a new nickname out of it? You can't possibly play all night in front of a stack like that and be called anything other than "The Doctor."

I already have the screwdriver....

Do it, even though it will never be bigger on the inside.

polyfill can make the speakers think it's bigger on the inside...

also, the day i have anything taller than a 4x10 i'm going to do this as well. heck, maybe i'll even do it to my bedroom door!

No suggestions, but I approve of this.

+ 1000000000 you need to post some pics when it's done.

I have to say that this is the coolest idea I've heard all day.
Thanks for the smile.

There are much worse things to be called. And the Doctor is cool, everyone knows that. If you have a pedalboard, you'd need to put a dog tail on it and call it K-9.

Seriously, though, I love this idea and will steal it at the first opportunity.
