Well, I took a trip to Krank Amplification Headquarters in Chandler, Arizona. My bassist and Lead Guitarist got their amps, but I did not. I held off because they are CREATING A CUSTOM ARTIST UNIT for me!!! I will get a custom grill, the speakers, wood, and tolex will be designed however I want them. They took amazing care of us, and I have attached a couple pictures below.

Nice!!! (Awkward filing cabinets in the way - you should have told them to move them or you would bring your new amp in and blast them out of the way!!) Hope the amp is everything you dream!!

I got to play a multitude of different amps and cabs to test what I want. I will be using the 13 Ply Birch Bark Wood to house the speakers(for better bass and treble response) and I will be using the custom speakers that are produced from the revolution series to heighten my midrange response. These Speakers have mesh cones in order to extract a brighter, punchy atmosphere with more headroom, that I will be counteracting with the heavier wood. The Custom grille cloth will have an image of our band mascot, Face, as well as my alias, Svartheim Von Wolfcastle. The logo will actually say Kranken Welpen with Krank Font. The tolex will be either black or gold(band colours). I will post pictures in a couple months when the creation process is done. For now I am using a Peavey JSX.
