My Rocket's facelift

[Lublin]

All this started out with a Rocket in a correct TW headshell. I then acquired an Express in a carbon fiber headshell from TAG's own Amplified Nation. The Express had a really beautiful flamed maple faceplate so, out of curiosity, I threw it into the TW headshell and really liked the look so it stayed. Then I was left with the Rocket and the carbon fiber headshell. I had a piece of aluminum diamond plate laying around at my shop, so I fabricated a faceplate out of it a la Mesa Boogie. I then needed a logo so, with the help of a friend who is a graphic designer, we mocked up a final logo and I also made it in my shop. All this took a while, but I'm really happy with the end result.

I give you.....the Brainwreck.

Very nice!

I like the tribute styling of the "logo" and the name is great. Also like the nod to Mesa.

I love my little DC-3.

I'm hoping to absorb enough knowledge here to love my new (not started yet) Trainwreck Express (clone).

Beautiful.

The correct TW cab is very nice also.

Thanks! I'm still way too new at this to attempt a build circuit myself, so I just stick to aesthetics. Maybe I'll pick up a simple tweed build to start me off on my path.

The correct TW headshell is gorgeous and I got really lucky finding it for sale. Whomever built it was very talented.

Rich,
That looks killer!! The carbon fiber came out real nice on that cab. Pics look great.

Thanks!
