My new Funky Express Cab - White suede with Zebrawood

Post by amplifiednation »

Check this monstrosity out. Who said you can't put suede on a Trainwreck?

I actually think the thick suede helps with oscillations. Literally the amp sounds even better. No problem playing it on the cab.

Full zebrawood front valence and faceplate. I was able to sand down an 1/8inch piece with my belt sander to make the faceplate, it was a piece of cake! High end WHITE suede!! The white suede is unreal. I finished the Zebrawood with tung oil and shellac.

Man this thing just sings once you can control it! No reverb needed

The Marshall 412 underneath the amp is perfect for the Express. It's loaded with it's original Blackbacks from 1979. Clean as a whistle inside. I haven't had time to restore it yet, or the desire.

Sorry pics could be better. It's too hot to take it outside for a photo sesh

I'm jealous. The place by me only had 1.5" thick zebrawood which is what i wanted . Maybe my next one!
