Things to do with an old practice amp

Post by sholkham »

So I have an old kustom 10 watt amp which was never very good. Today in a fit of boredom I decided to disassemble and clean it and I replaced the ratty ruined grille with some Ikea curtain fabric. I never use the amp and it's not really in working condition to sell or give away so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for something I could put in the chassis,

Ideas I had today but I haven't really looked into:
  • -old style Spring reverb unit (probably too small at 10" of space in the cab)
    -Cool garage rock amp using something like the noisy cricket or ruby, maybe with a boost circuit too.
    -Mp3 amp
    -hiding place

just to go a bit further off topic, the heater idea made me think of this:

Don't know if it's big enough, but reverb unit

Weber and a bunch of other sites have kits that are way cheaper to order without the enclosure
